I understand why people are downvoting my original comment -- it is very easy to dislike Amazon, for many reasons -- but the fact remains that you can lend eBooks.
You just have to put them on a physical device first.
And you're allowed to put each eBook on up to 5 devices. That means you could, theoretically lend up to 5 copies at a time. Not just one.
- jbeales 11y agoI didn't realize that parental controls could restrict purchasing, but it makes sense. It's true that you can lend ebooks, there are just a lot more hoops to jump through ;) I can't lend my ebooks, because I don't have a spare device, but that can be changed if I want. If I'm going to pay just as much for the paper book, though, I might as well buy that and skip the extra device management.
