When you purchase the book, access rights to that file/whatever are switched on, when you sell it, your access rights are switched off and the new "owner" has them switched on. Ta da!

I mean, people will find ways to copy them out of the interwebs, which will probably be against the TOS, but aside from that possibly illegal activity it should be do-able.
