Not a matter of deserve. I lend and give away books all the time, including ones that I'm not supposed to. On the inside of many paper books:

This book is sold subject to the condition that it shall not, by way of trade or otherwise, be lent, resold, hired out, or otherwise circulated without the publisher's prior consent.

I can appreciate everyone's interest in making their quick buck, but the kind of gimmicky garbage being put forward as book usage emulation limitations are just ridiculous.
