Exploding licenses is one reason I wasn't averse to the plan to delay release of ebooks to libraries, since a tradeoff was that one copy would remain available in perpetuity. I'd rather know I could get a book eventually than get it faster. It's frustrating when you find a book and realize you're too late. You can put it on hold just in case the library reacquires it, but that's a big if. In once case I know that I triggered a repurchase as the fifth hold, but in general I don't want to waste a hold on a faint possibility and I can't be the only one.
