Harmon,

I am not a lawyer, and I'm not going to start quoting "chapter and verse", but I don't need to be a lawyer to know that, at least in the UK, to give someone else a copy of a commercial eBook that is under copyright protection is a violation of civil copyright law, in exactly the same way that buying a CD and then giving a copy of that CD to someone else would be.
