I seem to remember a few years ago patents were being issued for tax-planning methods. And that taxpayers would be required to pay royalties to use the tax strategies covered by the patent.

I think congress subsequently changed the rules concerning tax planning patents.

So I guess a patent for a ebook delivery system is not so far fetched.
