lets be serious now, anyone could go to a popular torrent site with say, the picture of a pirate ship, and download gigabytes worth of books in a few minutes. Trying to sell this to make money...... well lots of sites DO do this.

I could point you to dozens of them that let you "read for free" on line. They have these little crappy HTML "Reader" containers that show page numbers (just EPUB wrappers) and let you forward/back pages 1 at a time. If you try to download the book, they ask for a few dollars via paypal.

This type stuff goes on ALL of the time. A lot of these sites are run from Russia, some from China, and other European countries...
