Well the case of a book is silly anyway, because nobody is going to copy an entire book, it's just not worth the time. I actually replied in the wrong thread, because I'm reading one about backups at the same time.

You mean to tell me that I'm not allowed, for instance, to make a backup of software I buy? If I lose my XP CD, I have to buy a brand new XP? I'm pretty sure that the law _specifically_ allows for me to make and recover from backup.
