Re: What kinds of Books are pirated and made into EBooks?

Amy,
  No, you misunderstand. These are serious questions. I am interested in what real effects there are in Ebook piracy. I read this list, and there is a lot of discussion of it. In fact, it permeates the list. A year or so ago, there was much more talk of protection, but that sees to have tapered of a bit. But nowhere does there seem to be real information. I used myself as an example to spark some discussion. We could talk of my morals, but what I am really interested in, and the reason I opened myself up in such a vulnerable fashion for, is to find out if there really is a serious measurable consequence to authors and publishers. What are your thoughts?
