Most logical solution to me is...

The whole "you don't own the books you've paid for" scam is getting REALLY old. And it's a constant treadmill month to month of "what crap did amazon pull this month?" This year, I've been buying most books from B&N, Smashwords, and publishers, and borrowing books from Libby/Overdrive. The convenience of buying and storing books in one location is just not worth it. Unfortunately, KU still meets the convenience/cost ratio. Blargh

It seems like if you can afford it, buying a digital copy every now and then for your library will benefit the author, the reading public and public libraries alike.

Technology shouldn't be making reading more expensive and less accessible.
