Presumably the relevant point there, though, was that you couldn't see them until you'd bought the ticket? "Shrink wrap" licences, where you can't see the terms of the licence until after you've bought the product, have been deemed to be invalid in many cases for that very reason.

I would suggest, though, that this is not the case for eBook stores. They all have their T&Cs available to be looked at. I don't personally think that the fact that the don't wave them in front of the customer's face at the time of purchase changes that, but I guess that's a matter for a court to decide.
