I can't see checking out books ever being more convenient than piracy because it will still be a renewal based system and you would still need to be tied to a local library. Piracy will always be the most convenient way to acquire digital products.
For the record, while I don't agree that every pirated file is a lost sale, I still believe that there is at least a decent percent of them that are. I feel that when people try to make it seem like piracy means nothing and has no effect on content creators they are just trying to justify their own piracy.
