Reselling? I don't personally know anyone who's ever been concerned about that. There are different rules for digital media. Welcome to the real world.

the reselling thing is a head scratcher for me as well. unless you're selling college textbooks or collectible volumes, how much would one actually stand to make from reselling old books? a penny? a quarter? things like romance novels are for $1 per pound. certainly not enough to lose sleep over.
