Why do you keep calling it "social" DRM?

It does duplicate those rights, up until the point that it only allows you to do so one time. That is a simple software limitation that should be easy to remove, if they wanted to do so.

It would have to allow for removing that book from a purchasers authorizations on both the that persons computer and at the seller on an individual book basis which means keeping track at a central site of all ebook sales for that type of drm.
The B&N/Adobe DRM already does that. When you lend the eBook to someone else, you do not have access to it.
