   At one time Amazon had a Kindle Lending Library where you could lend   
   ebooks you'd purchased to someone else. Not all books were eligible. It   
   was discontinued due to pressure by the publishers. If the publishers   
   could have figured out some way to control print books they would have.   
      
   Stephan Kinsella has written quite a bit on the subject and copyright in   
   general.
