There are books I will not pay for but will read if I can get from OD. There are books I will pay for if I cannot get from OD.

In the first category, if I can get from OD and I want to read it enough, I'll give a nod and/or a vote. In the second category, I will give a nod if I have any left and a vote.

Using OD means if a books wins, I may read it if I would not otherwise pay for it.
