Well, I do not agree that it is fundamentally different since I the moral system I think is most sensible is a consequence ethical system.
Also if it is trivial and no work involved to give ftp access to all the books for example if somebody asks for it then not doing it seems to me to be a restriction in other ethical systems also.
The reason a lot of people have not downloaded all the books and provided them is because they think some uploaders will complain and try to forbid it. But if you say that it is just starting doing it then it is just for somebody that is inspired to go ahead.
