Certainly, I would imagine that I would feel severe misgivings watching books being burnt, and I'd imagine feeling pleasure seeing people receive books that they would enjoy. I understand that giving the books away gives away the "license" for them under one view of what is right, but this doesn't strike me as the only reasonable interpretation of what is right here.
