If you read the court case findings the IA was not doing CDL as they claim. They had lost control of whether or not the digital copies were backed by physical copies at all. They were also pushing people to buy used copies from a site part owned by the person who runs IA. I think CDL can work and win legally. Unfortunately, IA's blatant disregard for copyright has poisoned the well for likely a long time to come.
