I mean it seems crazy though that if I have a legal physical book and it is legal to scan your physical book that somehow it is illegal to have someone else's scan of their book. What's the real logic there? You are apparently entitled to a legal pdf if you make it yourself but downloading the identical thing is a crime? I mean I can pay someone to come to my house and work my scanner and that's legal. So really this is a crime against people without enough money not about morals.I think it's because of barrier of entry. How many people are going to scan the PDF? They don't want PDFs of their products- the courts just made it so people could do it.
