Hey everyone, I'm sure your tired of hearing me relapsing on a new idea from time to time so I won't proclaim i've reached commitment.

I do have a concept I'm moving forward with that's a verified need and an under satisfied solution.

I'm a college student. I know lots of other college students who suffer from textbook prices. 20% of my remaining money was just spent on textbooks for this semester.
My solution is a peer to peer textbook service website. Essentially senior students can sell or rent textbooks they have purchased to junior students following their class path.

My concern is the increased amount of eTextbook services that are rental/one time code type services that don't allow students to keep the material forever. This is something the colleges dictate not the students. The market of eTextbooks compared to regular textbooks is still small so I'm still moving forward with executing this plan but are there any potential strategies for pivoting in the future if this ever becomes a problem?
