Make a mention that any piracy of a book can and will be traced back to the original purchaser.
The post that made us say "Ahhhhhhh"....!!!

Brother you hit the nail right on the head!

We all looked at each other like..."OK, we're done here. Let's now go and do it".

We were looking at this e-n-t-i-r-e-l-y the wrong way...great great great idea!

We need to discuss this point with the client, but unless there is a very particular reason, I can't see how this is not THE solution!

Many thanks!!!
