45% of the reads come from libraries, but only 15% of the revenue does? Gee, I think I understand why the publishers see this as an issue. Like I said in the other thread, pretty hard to compete with free.

Wonder why Baen can't get their books into libraries. Baen books just don't appeal to Library purchasers?
