It took me about 20 seconds to find "Excellent Women" in epub format. Many pirated books I stumble over in the internet are clearly written for female readers. Therefore, the target group for pirated books is clearly different than for the usual pirated software etc.

Anyway, some people here seem to have very strong views on pirating. I'm not saying that pirating is justified; however, given the atrocities that happen every day I am surprised that people can get all worked up just because someone who is living on the other side of the world says that he is downloading pirated books as he can't get or afford them legally.
