Books that are not patented do not require that royalties be paid. Anyone can downloand classics from before 1920 something for free and its not stealing, because they didnt have the same laws protecting authors back then. Also, I think there are limits to how long some patents last. Once a drug goes generic anyone can sell it. It might be the same with books, depending on where in the world you live.
