Even as someone that rejects intellectual property as invalid, I suppose I can understand why you are displeased.
However, as for your example, why would anyone buy such a book unless it explored new stories or otherwise filled a void in the market?

As for your book example comment, if somebody wrote Henry Potter, I imagine lots of people would read it. The story in each new Harry Potter book isn't new and exciting either... it's the same story, new details. Also, just because Harry Potter was the most popular series with that story line doesn't mean there's no demand for other similar books.
