@Miss: Sorry it got so OT. As I said at the beginning, a person-to-person transfer probably isn't a big deal. Currently, if a book is DRM'd for your personal use, unless you share an account with someone, you'd have to strip the DRM to be able to pass the book on to the other person.
Usually when you sign up to buy ebooks from Amazon or B&N or whatever, somewhere on the site there's a rider in there saying the books are for your personal use and the rights cannot be transferred blah blah blah. It might not say it on the books themselves depending on how the copyright is worded, but wherever you purchased the book usually has a little clicky tag or something you agreed to either at the time of purchase or when you signed up.
