Copyright law contains those restrictions on physical books, you may sell it, give it away but you can not make copies and sell them. With ebooks all you really need to do is follow copyright law, no need for a "license".
This is Baen's terms of use:

Yeah they put it at the end of the monthly newsletter. I believe those will override any "licenses" Amazon or any other retailer. All they require is that you follow copyright law.
