3. You want to keep the book longer than the library allows.
4. You want a book that is easier to transport.
5. etc, etc, etc...

I think you meant it's a poor value to you. Obviously it's not a poor value to others or eBook sites would not be selling thousands of ebooks. And just as obviously iTunes is fairly priced or they would not have sold billions of songs.
