(not passing any judgements about piracy, or the ethics therein..I just don't get the whole "I deserve to have it because xxx" thing people bring up.."They didn't release it in English here" "She wouldn't release it in eBook form" etc. etc. )
My specific gripe is with publishers who, when releasing their backlist titles in ebook format, release books 1, 2, etc., *SKIP A TITLE*, release rest of series... Hunh?!? If you're gonna make a commitment to release a series, DON'T SKIP - because if you do, I *will* darknet the skipped title!
