No one has talked about what then you do with the book when you're done in iBooks. There's still no mechanism in iBooks that addresses this. I find it still very frustrating that the consumer is expected to buy an ebook that will never change in price and then not allowed to "loan" the book, or even give the book away to someone. I would like to give the rights to the book to someone else when I'm finished. I see no sense to be stuck with the book. I would even like to be given the option to give the rights to say a library. Some libraries are now allowed to "loan" an ebook out for a specific time just like a typical brick and mortar library.
We are being penalized as ebook readers just for the shear fact we love convenience.
Is this even fair?
