Thank you.

The key issue, in my mind: how obvious is it, and how many clicks does it take, to get from a random ebook listing to the terms associated with that purchase? If there's no "click here for the legal aspects of this purchase" link, it's hidden.

I believe there isn't even a set of terms labeled for ebooks... there's the KINDLE terms of use, but nothing about the content itself. It's not clear at all that the Kindle terms, which are often assumed to belong to the device, are also applicable to the Kindle apps.
