Disagree 100%. I'd be very disappointed if Amazon had this sort of policy. Amazon sells me ebooks (licenses books ,rents books, whatever) on receipt of payment from me. The sale, at least in Amazons case, to the best of my knowledge, includes their online backup service. The author has no right to tell me or Amazon that I can't re-download the e-book that I've already paid for. This is completely different to demanding that Amazon stop selling any new copies of their book.
