And I can make a copy of an ebook and view it forever on any device. What's your point? This is about what's allowed, and what SHOULD be allowed, not what's technically possible.
It's means one physical book is one book. You can't press a button and create infinite free duplicates. You can't give the book to someone else and still have it yourself. digital data is different. That's why First Sale can apply to physical possessions but may not work so well with digital data, and that why IP providers want different rules to account for the different properties. Cuz they're different, see?
