Ps, in Holland a second hand ebook website started. First the Judge said it was forbidden. But the higher Judge said it wasn't forbidden. And now a Judge site it isn't forbidden, but you must make sure the ebooks aren't illegal. That has to do with the Usedsoft-arrest.

This could be interesting. A European Judge said you can resell second hand software, legally so why not second hand ebooks... The site that is doing this is Tom Kabinet You can find reactions from lawyers on the internet. But i think most reactions are in Dutch.

Don't pin me down on the details. Now it is forbidden cause they must have extra checks to make sure they aren't selling illegal ebooks but only ebooks that people realy bought themselves and delete from their computer once it is sold.

Discussion by a well know internet advisor is here:
Tom Kabinet in hoger beroep alsnog verboden - Ius Mentis

The site have to decide if they want to go further proceeding. This all hapening in january 2015 and still no real outcome.
