It seems to me, quite simply and logically, that OverDrive is trying to cut way down on the unread problem that chews up licenses as well as time. Good for them. Frankly, this is a case of score one for the reader.
I've been thinking along the same line. I thought there was a quote in one of the linked articles that actually mentioned there were a lot of books that were borrowed and never read.
