electriclandI guess I can sort of see the point of this for people who aren't served by the largest public library system in Canada (and the one with the second highest circulation in the world, after Hong Kong).
But my first thought on reading the phrase "Like Netflix, but for books" was "You mean like a library, but not free?"

2 of the programmers for it are in Canada, and it has a fairly decently sized Canadian contigency, unlike some of the other swapping sites.
