Everything to do with how much the library is willing to spend and zilch to do with the technology. The majority of the ebooks at my local library are set up to allow a single loan (the lowest cost option) with more popular books set up to allow more simultaneous loans depending on how much the library was willing to spend -- often the number will decrease over time as the book becomes less popular. Their free ebooks collection allows unlimited loans.
