So this particular Amazon contributor had apparently scanned the book

breaking copyright.
We don't know that.
No wonder Amazon would call the purchases back. I
empathise with those who had their books deleted from their readers,
though.
No.
The publisher *changed their mind* about selling an electronic edition
and retroactively deleted the copies that had been sold.
Think about this in context of news or political writing.

I don't really know whether it really WAS a case of "...The publisher
*changed their mind* about selling an electronic edition."
Changing your mind after you already [presumably] have consummated an
otherwise legal deal [otherwise why would Amazon go ahead with
distribution?]
Sounds a bit fishy to me...
On the other hand, the Uniform Commercial Code [if that applies here]
says you have three days to 'change your mind' and rescind the deal...
Bag of snakes, eh?
