Downloading previously purchased content

Why can’t I download this audiobook again? Nevermind that Audible’s website was poorly programmed and so I never actually downloaded it the first time. If I buy a book, I ought to be able to download it again, right? If I had gotten the file, I could have made a million copies, right?

Same problem with the MSDNAA system on campus. I get one download. I can look up my product key all I want, but no second downloads. So I have to get the ISO from a friend and use my key.

I’ve been trying to think of some good technical or legal reason for this practice, but I can’t think of one. Can someone smarter than me leave an explanation?
