One sided digital license agreements are meaningless. Not just because no one ever reads them, but for the simple fact that I do not agree with anything they say, although I am still able to click the button.
You seem to be a bit confused Harry, you mention the conception of the container for ideas, meaning the method of idea transmission is irrelevant, but you then place distinctions between paper and digital.
You mention the fact that when a paper book is transferred no "extra" copy is being made, I suppose you would see no problems with the transfer of ebooks if no "extra" copy is being made? As a moderator of this forum, would you allow us to post our "used" ebooks into the mobile read library? Perhaps with a system set up to allow for one lend at a time? Perhaps an easier method would be to allow us to upload our used ebooks and then grant cloud access to the books, one user at a time? Either way no copies are made.
