I think that last is something Amazon should have done. I bet they have another copy of 1984 somewhere that they are allowed to sell...

Yes, they sell the one from the official copyright holder, at $9.99. You're not seriously suggesting, are you, that Amazon should take the hit and supply people with a $9.99 book for free as a result of an upload of an illegal version of the book? Amazon were not responsible for that - if anyone should "pay" for it, it's the publisher who uploaded the illegal version.
