Rant: Overdrive's stupid licensing system. A book I had on hold ran out of licenses, and I have no way to know whether the library will bother to reacquire it or not.

Blame the publishers, not OverDrive. They're the ones who insist on the licensing system. Imagine if libraries had to re-buy paper books over and over in order to continue loaning them to patrons.

Is this really an Overdrive problem or a publisher license problem? AFAIK it's the publishers that wanted these terrible terms. Shouldn't be allowed IMO.
