That might be so. But that does not make your original argument valid. Just wanted to say that since it seemed in the thread that some people assumed that just because you do not agree that an argument is valid you cannot agree that the conclusion of the argument holds anyway.

But I do not understand why it is utterly wrong and misleading. Why do I not own the ebook file in the same way that I own a paper book? I can move the file around and I can destroy it which I can also do with a paper book and which are two properties that can be enough to define ownership.
