Have you talked to Kevin O'Leary or Robert Herjavec at all since filming/has Mark Cuban? They seemed so against what you were doing..
Also, have you found that mostly older people don't think what you're doing is possible and won't work because they say their kids are using their textbooks all the time (like Robert did)? And what are you going to do to get those people that actually do use their books frequently to use packback? I get that what you rent gets credited to the cost of the book but if they know they will be using the book why wouldn't they just buy a used copy for cheaper than the price of the new e-book? Do you think that's just a lost cause and that you understand that you can't be the one-stop shop for someone to get all of their textbooks, just the place to go for those that don't use them often?
