Is it reasonable to “borrow” an ebook?
And if so, how would one do that “Legitimately”
I am not talking about a DVD or Book On Tape from the Library,
I am saying for example, your friend purchases a How-to book of some kind on the Internet.
Now I KNOW, there are conditions where it is completely within the law to transfer the ownership of that book, just as I can with “licensed software”
AND for the moment, let’s just assume it is not a pattern or chart or other craft how-to books
It is a downloadable PDF -
Now I have to tell you, I borrow a lot of books from the Library - often with express purpose of deciding if I want to buy -
So, can I “borrow” an E-Book - and then “return” it to my friend
If so under what conditions would you think it reasonable for that to be done.
This is the sort of esoteric think that keeps me up at night,
So if you have a comment, concept or opinion, I really would love to hear it.
