   To anyone as ignorant as I:

   "CDL" is "controlled digital lending" and this is how that lawsuit has gone so far (as of October last year):

   The publishers seem to be arguing that all digital lending is a potential threat to their business and libraries have no right to do it. That's as expected. It seems the lawsuit has not reached a summary judgement, reached a settlement, nor gone to court yet?

     "That's quite unfortunate but I don't see how your choice of a failed business model is society's problem."
