Hmm... will they have the same legal rights with the ebooks that they do with pbooks? The right to loan or resell them?

And does this mean public domain ebooks can't be given away for free if someone is also selling them? What about pbooks sold for different prices (hardcover/trade/mmpb versions, or different versions licensed to different publishers)? Is the ebook vendor free to match any of those prices, or will someone be establishing rules for which version is the "correct" one?

(Rhetorical questions. Just pondering how countries try to pass laws to support flawed business models.)
