considering http://www.diybookscanner.org/ http://www.diybookscanner.org/ and the speed with which illegal texts of books popped up on the internet even before drm-breaking of ebooks was a thing, i think it's like demanding access to the source code of an unobfuscated python program you've already been given. getting the source isn't hard; the only hurdle is a legal one. i find it hard to believe that 1) amazon would violate contracts on something like that or 2) if they did, hachette would somehow suffer financially, but not notice, or be unable to do anything about it.
