The problem with reselling stuff that is purely software is that it can never be guaranteed that the product will actually be sold. "Selling" means that someone else gets the product, for a price, and it's guaranteed that *you* don't have the product anymore.
I can sell you a fully DRM-ed copy of a file, and STILL keep an un-DRM-ed version for myself.
If selling ebooks would be legal, I'd be very happy. I'd buy a lot of books, download and copy the files, de-DRM the copies, and sell the originals for half price. Permanent 50% profit.
