That would make me drive to Apple to talk to someone. Not the store, but the headquarters. Especially after paying $100+ for an online textbook. This is something that has been glossed over but as Gerald mentioned, there is already a lawsuit over it. You should be able to keep something that you purchase. Especially after paying the large amount of cash needed for textbooks.
I think that Kindle is a good idea that has taken several years to catch on. There has been at least 20 other attempts before the Kindle. Fortunately, the technology has gotten to the point where they could do a lot with it especially if they were to have things like textbooks with pictures. I would love to see something like that on an interactive level.
