Errr, did you miss the bit where I said "it would be much more in compliance with the doctrine if the DRM was set to ensure that if you did lend or sell your copy, you no longer had access to it"
Obviously, there are different modes of action between digital property and more traditional property. That said, allowing the sale of a digital book (and the destruction of your copy) seems much more in line with the first-sale doctrine than preventing said transfer.
