Let's assume, I wouldn't even sell my readers, but just a "portion" of my account.
Meaning: I delete 1 of those 4 PIDs and hand that spot to another guy/girl.
So the account actually could be circulated between up to 4 parties at a time.
Each of those 4 parties would be able to access my library and read the eBooks on their respective readers.
Of course, distributor's argument will be, I'm the only one being allowed to have 4 units, but it's not allowed to spread over 4 legal persons.
My answer would be: Those 4 units could be owned by me, my parents and my wife. Why not 4 friends or colleagues? Or 4 total strangers?
So: Is it 4 units, exclusively bound to me or is it just 4 units?
