Chicago-based KamberEdelson filed a class action Thursday that alleges Amazon violated the terms of use for its Kindle product when it deleted copies of George Orwell's "1984" and "Animal Farm" from Kindle users' electronic libraries. The complaint, filed on behalf of two plaintiffs in federal court in Seattle, claims Kindle's terms of use gives owners "the non-exclusive right to keep a permanent copy of the applicable Digital Content and to view, use, and display such Digital Content an unlimited number of times."
