Though I do get the difference and I actually did think about that when I first posed the question, I think the lines are slightly more blurred for me because an e-book isn't as physical to me as an actual book and seeing as most of the time I only read a book once, I very rarely keep them and pass most of them on, it just feels like I'm passing an e-book on? IDK

Anyway, I very rarely illegally download books, but let's say we would start reading a quite recent (expensive) book that I wasn't sure I was going to like or not, I would have to think twice about spending (lots of) money on it.

(If I could rephrase my original comment, what if I pass on a book to my sister, she reads it and then passes it on to my mother, she then gives it to her neighbour and so on. Then we're kind of moving into that grey area of us basically taking away money from the publishers.)

Aren't you allowed to share 5 e-book copies or something like that? Being able to download it on 5 devices? Doesn't Amazon have some sort of arrangement for book clubs? Is anon too tired to type and should go to bed...

I don't think it would be a good idea to read new/expensive books in the book club if we're going to do it. We should focus on books that are easy to access and have been out for a while.
