    If you have reseller rights to an e-book does that mean you can give it away for free? I know it probably depends on the specifications of "reseller rights" but what if you bought an e-book from someone and they just said you have reseller rights and didn't provide any more terms, does that mean you can give it away for free to as many people as you want? I'm asking because I'm trying to construct a large database of e-books for free, so I can add a lot more if I buy e-books with reseller rights then add them for free.

    Check with each e-book owner to clarify their policy. Get a release, in writing, stating it is okay to redistribute their e-book for free [or for a charge, etc.] Assume nothing as that can end up biting you in the end...figuratively speaking!
