you "bought" an ebook, you did not receive an absolute transfer of
title in an object in exchange of money: rather, you bought a license
to access a copy of the digital file.

well there are actually media sellers that
sell you a copy of the file.
and this is what
I want.
all those who want to just
lease and call it a sale are free to go elsewhere with their crap. In this case I'll go and buy the cheapest pboook (preferably used - no money for them) and make an ebook
I own.
and its not according to the law but depends on the ebookshops terms of use -these are no laws.
