The most reliable indicator of how frequently a title will be pirated is how popular it is.

I suppose so, but they'll make people like me who want to support their favorite authors but can't afford to pay the high prices.
Take my mom for instance, she lives in a very tight budget so I share an account with her and she downloads the books I buy (since we have similar tastes) but had she not been able to use my books she couldn't afford the prices.
