HOLD ON A SECOND.
Just because Copy Protection IS removed does NOT mean a person has ANY reason to pay additional fees to the copyright holder.
You are assuming that the only reason people do that is to share material with others; totally INCORRECT.
I could just as easily say that people who share a single Kindle Account with multiple people (for instance you and your wife) should pay an additional license fee as you could both read the same book at the same time.
