I realize your stats might not be absolutely perfect, Fbone, but I really appreciate your efforts at quantifying this.
I think the problem is libraries' acquistion policies and budgets, and Overdrive's "business model" (whatever that is). Libraries rent copies of popular "real" books to cover periods of a volume's popularity; I wonder how this works with ebooks.
I also wonder if libraries don't give higher priority to physical books, which involve patrons actually coming into library facilities and generally being more visible, more demanding, and more in support of libraries' traditional mission.
