And again it is not. We will have to agree to disagree on this one. And sure you can create sales. Make buying more enticing. One way is advertisement. You advertise a book, you create sales. Every sale that happens is new and existed as a non-sale previously. You can choose. Either let someone else pay for it for a crippled book (time limited borrow you might have to stand in line for to read) and get it from the library, or choose to pay yourself by getting your own license right now without time limits. If you can convince a future borrower waiting in line to drop out and buy outright, you created an additional sale. Not even publishers are as stubborn as you in declaring every borrow from the library as lost opportunity to create an extra sale.
