The site discussed in this post on TechCrunch seems to be one of the more innovate services devoted to trading media.
Swaptree will allow users to swap media items (books, CDs, DVDs and video games) with other users without the use of cash. Swaptree will not charge a transaction fee, relying instead on contextual advertising revenue that will be placed on the site. For a new user, the idea is that you type in a few items that you own and are willing to trade (using the UPC or ISBN code) and you’ll see thousands or tens of thousands of items that people are willing to trade for your stuff.
Have any libraries or library contortia tried to host anything like this on a local level? Have any college or university libraries tried to host something like this for textbooks?
yep))) I would like to swap books, CDs, DVDs and video games with other users without the use of cash…great!
