MrsJoseph, as I said---I do not condone piracy, I do not use pirate sites, and I pay for my books. I was just responding to the imho ridiculous idea that authors 'deserve' to get paid just like someone who works a full-time job. They do not. Writing a book does not entitle one to full-time job income. It IS a commission sales job, imho, and I do think that customers who use should pay. BUT if they are not, there is a reason and if the authors want to convert those users to customers who pay, they need to work out what that reason is and address it. Arguing about right/wrong/moral etc. does NOT address those reasons and solve the problem.
