Why doesn't Marx drink proper tea? Because proper tea is theft.
Sorry.
Back OT, I think that the morality around appropriate behaviour with ebooks, for most people, is based on what you could have done with the equivalent pbook. So most of us, I suspect, think that giving your ebook to someone else and deleting the copy that you use (your library/ebook copy or whatever) is OK.
Morality is likely to shift over time on this - as it does on all issues. Indeed, it seems to be shifting already, in that my impression is that people are becoming less bothered about whether they are "supposed" to have digital content. I'm not sure if this impression is created by a genuine shift in attitude, though, or simply more opportunity to obtain content via the internet.
