This is an interesting topic, especially with regard to the justification of essentially pirating a book because of costs, NOT the multiple accounts issue, which is legitimate.
Has it really gotten so bad that we can't afford textbooks for our students? When I was a student, schools had no choice but to buy textbooks for each child. If a school thinks that just because you can easily copy a file, they should do it to save money, then (1) I don't want my child going to a school with that type of ethics and (2) Our schools and governments need to work on their priorities with regard to books. Books are the foundation of almost all schools and all subjects. Very few classes happen without books.
I would suspect that Amazon and many other corporations would want to support an e-book environment (good business sense) and would work to accommodate schools and education systems.
