It's true Harry, but I can give it, sell it, lend it to friends without being accused of being a thief or without having to circumvent the law. At least I own the paper, glue and ink. I don't have to give all my personal data to be able to buy it and eventually have it watermarked to my name not even to be able to say it's a book I own.
