Well, I'm not sure how it works in the UK, but in the States, there is no law requiring restauranteers to refund customers after they've already eaten a meal - that is left to the owners discretion.
But anyways, most media avialable in digital format can either be sampled or previewed prior to sale. Entire CD's are often streamed on a band or labels website. Movies can be rented prior to purchase, and books checked out of the library. The suggestion that consumers do not have access to materials prior to a purchase simply does not wash with me.
