Everyone made this out to be a big deal but at least with my uni you could almost always find it available in the library reverse and grab it a few weeks out before the semester started.

Also, most of the big name textbooks can be found in convenient PDF format for a ... very low price, if you are willing to look.

Sounds nice. In my experience, no, it isn't that easy. Books tend not to be available in the library and PDFs are few and far between. Even if those were options, I usually needed a hard copy I could highlight and annotate. And a semester's books did always cost into the hundreds of US dollars.
