Granted, it's not perfect, but I like the idea, and it's more like what I would call "sharing". People typically only use the same accounts as members of their household, so I wouldn't characterize that as the ability to share because of what using the same account entails (e.g. permission to purchase books with my money).

I also don't think it's so bad that you can't read a book that you lend to a friend, because it's the same way with p-books. At least this way you know you'll get it back.
