You may be right, but I'm not entirely sure this is correct. As far as I know, for example, it is completely legal to convert a CD (or vinyl record) into a compressed audio format for your personal use. It would be illegal to resell the song or to distribute it without authorization, though. I don't know if there is specific legislation anywhere targeting the digitization of books for personal use.
