You make your case there (bold mine). Now please do explain how the new windowing to allow ONE perpetual ebook per library is not exactly the same as banning ebooks from libraries at release. The only nice thing is allowing a reduced price perpetual ebook that never expires with time or number of loans. Libraries could go wide instead of deep, reducing demand of the publishers cash cows by advertising a very wide selection of older titles.
