Can iBooks be loaned to other iBook users? Kindle has this capability. I think it wood not be that difficult for Apple to create this service for it's customers. What's the point of having only books you can never share. If this is the case I might as well be buying books on my kindle app. They do have a larger and cheaper selection!

Another feature of Kindle which iBooks lacks is the ability to read their books on a laptop/desktop. You should of course buy your ebooks at the whatever source provides the features you want.
Does anyone know if Apple ever plans to offer this?
Nobody in these forums can tell you anything about Apple's future plans. Given that they have never reponded to over 2 years of requests for an OS X version of iBooks, I would not be optimistic about loaning.
