It didn't work for people backing up their records with cassette tapes, or cds dvds, and now ebooks.

The publishers etc. can say what they like, but people are going to consider their ebooks as their property thereby having the right to back them up so that they aren't dependent on any business if said business goes belly up or simply changes their mind and decides to stop keeping their customers copies.

It is an unenforceable law and always will be.
