If I owe a paper book, I have no problem with dowloading ebook version of it. Moreover, since I have already paid for the paper book, I will not pay anymore for a different edition. On the other hand, 95% I buy hardback editions and this is the best contribution to an author, because their real money come only from the first edition hardback books (I loath to feed middleman, they usually are very greedy and are making easy money on someone's talent). So, I don't feel guilty when I download ebook version of a hardback edition I owe.
