As I say, I didn't know about the need to keep the paid for copy in
physical form - I came clean on that at about line three of this thread.
There's no need to keep restating it! But you can if you like, obviously.


Yes I restated it, because my explanation would not have made sense if I'd
missed out the very few words that actually constituted the restatement. The
point of my post, BTW, was to explain that the rule comes from the industry,
and is not written in statute or contract/case law, something you clearly
did not already know.


I'd have thought the rule has some basis in law, and law is statute etc?
Anyhow, as i say, I'm familiar with the essence and by no means
knowledgeable on matters of law.

is quite an interesting development while talking about sharing and
copyright.
