This question of not downloading because it means you are not paying is rather more complicated then this poll suggests. I buy all my hardcopy books from charity and second hand shops and borrow others from the library, its been over a year since I bought a book from a proper bookshop, so am not giving any money to the author or publisher. How is this differant from downloading from darknet? Are you suggesting that it is unethical for me to buy second hand books or borrow them from friends?
