It's not a terrible deal if I prefer it in digital form (most fiction in particular) especially if I'm likely to only read it once. In normal circumstances, digital is much better for me as I can travel with all the books I want.

It's a good deal if you want to own the ability to read digitally for the agreed upon time period. Read = 1, Property = null.

It's a terrible deal if you want to own the e-book for a second read, because you haven't bought that.
