OK,

So what's the difference between all the books that are sold on ebay, and software?

There is regularly Oxford books and software up for sale - I know - I bought some of the books.

Presumably they would try to take a similar stand on the books, but can't? Or did I just get lucky and Oxford missed the auction?

It also begs the question of how ebay can sell so many DVD's, CD's and software, which presumably have the same copyright issues.

I'd be very interested to see if anyone with a legal background on here could make a comment?
