But anyway, who is more or less responsible was not the main point, and it would depend on the circumstances and subjectivities.
I believe in the US, where Amazon's Kindle store does business, money doesn't matter. I could be wrong about that though, copyright law changes so fast these days, and usually to the detriment of the consumer.
