1. They're my ebooks; I'm responsible for saving/losing them.
2. If I had a fire and lost a pbook, I would not be eligible for any "refund".
3. Tough luck.

Tough luck...You learned an expensive lesson...Backups
You are no more "entitled" to the Ebook from the library than losing your paper copy then stealing it from elsewhere...
