Technically you are correct. No actual rule is broken. But the intent was to share with a friend an occasional book that you found interesting, however the intent of the site is to try to get something for free and get every possible book the user is will to provide. I guess you don't see any difference. It is like a guy that used to work for me that every year used exactly every sick day, year after year. One year he actually got sick and there were no sick days left and he was very upset that he didn't get paid when he was sick. Pushing the boundaries is trying to take advantage of a good thing.
