Hmm...so now the test is 'consent of the owner of the book'? Poor authors, kicked to the curb again.

If ownership is the standard, then if I indicate my consent to allow anyone who wishes to to read the book I just bought by uploading it to a dozen torrent sites, that's fine, since anybody reading it has the consent of the owner of that book.
