I am not downloading illegal copies of ebooks. I am purchasing them. If you equate my method of sharing with relatives/friends with piracy, so be it.

This is what seems to be lost on so many people. Once you have purchased the ebook it is up to
you to decide if you want to share it with a family member, it is
not up to the publisher or author. Uploading it for indiscriminate downloading is another matter entirely. Personal use trumps any and all laws, EULA, TOS, etc.
