How accurate is this.

If I purchase a paper book, I own the paper, the ink, ... everything physical. The copyright holder can't erase what is on the paper, take the book, ... Copyright limits copying, distribution, ...

If I purchase an ereader, I own it. I own the cover, the eink screen, the memory, the storage, ...

I may have purchased/licensed the ebook, but I still own physical part on my device, there are just limits on what I can do with it.

I don't know, just thinking out loud.
