Net Library Is a library that lends out digital books．It treats a digital like a paperback copy．It charges libraries per book per copy and gives publishers a cut of the total income．
From the consumer's point of view, this means that if more than, say, five people want the latest Danielle Steel romance novel, other people who request that book will get a message saying the title can't be found．
It's a model many publishers seem to have embraced．More than 350 gave the company rights to hand out their digital works and McGraw-Hill Corporation and Houghton Mifflin Corporation have put money in the company．The California public libraries and about 1,800 others across the US are trying out the Net Library service．
Some librarians criticize the New Library model．Stanford University librarian Michael Keller argues that the company is creating an unnatural fear of digital woks; which is contrary to the ideas of the Internet．
Keller and some other librarians argue for the e-book vision set forth by E-Brary．E-Brary is starting a service mat lets us users read books for free．
But it will charge about 25 cents a page when a person tries to print out material or copy and paste it into a different file or tries to download copy onto a computer．
Christopher Warnock, chief executive of E-Brary, believes most consumers won't want to buy entire books, only the parts that interest them．
"There's not really a lot of good m owning an electronic file and having to store it and manage it．It doesn't make sense．" he said．

A．They get money from selling their books to the Net Library.
B．They share the money with the Net Library.

2.The underlined word "embraced" in the 3rd paragraph means _ ___.

3.From the 2nd paragraph we can see consumers .
A．don’t care if they are charged money

C．don’t like other people borrowing books
D．complain about the limited number of the new books
4.What does the last paragraph mean?
