This would have been great when I was taking my BIG courses. Even buying the used textbooks from the campus store put a big dent in the ol' pocketbook. Renting the books would have been so much easier for me. I like the idea!

I will disagree, however, with the line "Since students just throw away the books after their course, then why purchase them, right?" Nearly everyone I associated with re-sold their books to recoup some of the money they spent on them. I sold some of mine and kept some others (since they were fun/useful/a great bludgeoning tool). I don't know anyone who just threw their books away.
