I don't see why the 10 book limit should be a show stopper, unless you are in the habit of reading more than 10 books simultaneously.

I don't think amazon licenses a fixed number of copies per book like the libraries do, right? They can lend out unlimited copies; they just need to pay. So it's not as if you need to "hoard" a copy when it's available.

(Maybe books you've gotten from KU will show up on cloud. It'd be great to have an automatic record of what i've read no matter the source, even side loaded books. For all I know, amazon is doing this already, recording all kind of data and metrics about my reading. I wish they'd let me access it.)

What I wonder is how long are books licensed for? Months, a year, indefinitely? With netflix, movies and shows expire and routinely drop off the service, so you can miss stuff if you postpone seeing them.

My problem with KU is right now I have a hard time finding even ten books I really want to read that I can't find in the two quite good public libraries I have access to.
