It is a totally bizarre digital rights situation, though it is no doubt worse if you live somewhere like Bulgaria and cannot buy anything legally.

But I’m not motivated enough to seek out pirated copies.
The illustrated Kindle in motion editions are original text that you could buy. (Still says HP and Sorcerer's Stone on cover though, that title is translated).
