Isn't RedHat's customers the general public?  Do they only sell training to
corporations?  Governments?  Or do they not in fact sell training to anyone
who can pay the tuition?  There are also "fair use" provisions that would
permit you to scan it for yourself.  You couldn't distribute it, but an
infringement lawsuit would go nowhere and would certainly garner them some
very bad press.
