This is not the same from "sharing" with millions of people all at one. Not the same at all.

You're right. They're not the same. But the "security measures" taken by the entertainment industry only seem to be impeding the one-at-a-time sharer... the casual "would you like to borrow my book?" crowd. Because those measures certainly don't seem to be affecting those who want to share with millions. At. All.
You simply can't stop the people who want to share in bulk. It's impossible. All you can accomplish is pissing off the people who discover they can no longer exercise what was always a perfectly acceptable form of sharing previously.
