Funny that I can get a paper copy of Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, for which I own all the rights, in perpetuity, and can resell or gift it as I wish, for $5.94, but a digital "license", which gives me no rights and can disappear at any moment, and I can not do anything with it, costs $7.99, or 35% more. You literally are paying for your rights to be taken away, isn't it marvelous?
Oh yes, and if I'm ok with a used copy, it's $2.15. Would I shame anyone (including myself) if somehow, by an unexplained miracle of nature, it happens that a DRM-less digital copy of the same book appears on their hard drive? No, I won't.
