My point is that ebooks usually cost a lot less than print books due to their rather ephemeral nature. So it would be wrong to resell one, especially considering they don't receive the wear and tear of print books. Giving the ebook secondhand to someone else wouldn't be as bad, especially if you deleted all copies and knew the other person wouldn't just turn around and hand it off to all their friends. But it's very doubtful that there will ever be a secondhand store for used ebooks because they never get "used." They're always "like new."
I didn't say you're stupid, for all I know you're very bright. But I'm afraid some of the ideas you're espousing are seriously stupid.
