Legally, too.
If you're talking about software and that coincides with the laws in your area, ok. If you can email an ebook to someone and then delete your copy, and that also satisfies the law in your area, then ok too. I'm not familiar with that. If you can buy a paper book, run off your own copy on a printing press, then sell it and burn the original and it's all legal. Wonderful.

That's still how it works, I am afraid, like it or not.
Well I suppose I'm limited to the product discussed in this thread and the place from which I'm writing when I say no, it does not work that way, nor does it happen that way.

Selling you a book can be considered a service, if you must, but it still results in the purchase of non-tangible goods.
I think I see the problem, here, and the flaw in much of the criticism of ebook sales, and DRM:

There's no such thing as non-tangible goods.
