    A yes, of course, the legal challenges of selling a copy of a book that is already for sale 🙄🙄🙄

    Yeah the existing deal with publishers is “sell my book” dummy.

      The development work I mentioned it you actually read it was about ensuring that specific access is given at the scale in which they need.

      Plus the legal challenge is not about the singular copies of books but for it to be in a state that is suitable for the ingestion of data which would likely mean giving them specifically DRM free versions which I imagine some book publishers would scowl at.
