Against my better judgment, I've borrowed a book from Hoopla. I can't even find a download button, it's only streaming. Aargh.

Addendum: Apparently when you borrow on the PC, there is no download or return option on the device (I'm using the Android app on my Moto E); all you can do is stream. However, returning the book on the PC, then borrowing it on the device, offers you a download option. And of course that also uses up an additional book of the 10 per month allowed. The device and the PC sync to the extent that both show the book as borrowed, but that's it. How idiotic can you get?
