Pure scaremongering and Corporate propaganda.

The civil contracts that claim that about digital products may be illegal and invalid.

No content provider is going to sue a descendent that has been given a digital library for personal use, in case they lose. They would have to prove a loss. It's not at all like digital content copied to all and sundry or uploaded and shared or sold on the Internet.
