Not sure it's the reasoning in US and Europe but that quite undestandable , especially given the fact that many books there not published in eBook form but bought in paper and than scanned and OCR-ed by users (the site is WiKi style - anyone can upload).
Whereas in some other countries, like Hungary, thousands of the most popular works from the body of national literature (both classical and some still recent/under copyright) are made available freely and legally by the national library in electronic format for the benefit of all.
