Here is how to Protect Your Ebooks - most common question asked here
Common way of delivering ebooks is:
Buyer clicks on the payment link > goes the payment processor like paypal/2checkout/clickbank etc > pays > redirected by the payment processor to the web site to download the ebook. *This redirect url should be entered by the merchant in payment processor panel while creating the payment link.
So far it is basic and simple.
Now the following problem pops-up for the merchant:
* What if the buyer passes around the download page URL? or download link? Can buyer shares the password too?
* What if buyer distributes the ebook or print the ebook and give away?
* What if the buyer passes around the download page URL? or download link? Can buyer shares the password too?
- You need to make sure that download link should be accessible ONLY AFTER the successful sale. (Sometime back people used to add 'demo=1' in 2co urls and make fake purchases and download the product. But now 2co has few parameters in merchant panel which don't allow this)
- Hide the urls of the downloads.
- Control the access to the download link like number of days or clicks or whatever it is.
- Disable download link after successful download.
Any decent shopping cart would do all these. So before buying look for the above criteria.
* What if buyer distributes the ebook or print the ebook and give away?
This problem is after buyer downloads the product. For this you need to have few requirments implemented with the ebook as such.
- Disable printing of the ebook.
- Password protect the ebook.
- Brand it.
- Copyright notice.
- Some ebook creating software has a security feature like the ebook will be assigned to one computer only. It assigns a licensecode, so the ebook will open up on one computer only.

Even doing all these, still the digital products are liable for illegal distribution by people. So hope for the best ...
