I signed up. I don't think there is anything to lose and some of the non-selling vendors (at least for me) have started to show a few sales.

I'd never heard of them, but if it gets me some more exposure I'm for it so I signed up.

It's amusing how we all sign up without knowing much about them. We trust Draft2Digital, I suppose.

From the little I researched, the platform has thousands of reviews online and is popular. I wonder how they compare with Overdrive? Overdrive is the only successful library service so far for my titles--with a dash of Hoopla from one title accepted. Borrow Box seems very e-friendly. They limit borrows for 14 days. They also allow borrowing audiobooks.

There are so many library platforms out there but I, personally, don't use any of them for reading myself.

I would use them if my local library system were hooked up to them. At one time I could get free foreign language lessons through the local library, and I worked on my very rusty German. Stood me in good stead in Vienna when the occasional person there did not speak English. I could say clearly that I did not speak German!
