Practically speaking, Jon, how could they do that? It's one thing to check whether or not a book is in the public domain, but if you find that it isn't, how are Amazon going to check whether or not the publisher has a legitimate right to distribute it? All they can realistically do is to get the uploader to declare that they have that right, and that is precisely what they currently do.
