The full judgement can be read in English here. See here for other languages.

It does seem that it may only apply to computer programs, in that it relies on a bit of law that is specific to computer programs, and not to general literary works.

It is a very hopeful sign that the courts consider that resale of licences to use is legal.

But even if it did apply to ebooks, DRM would prevent resale happening at the moment.
