You have acknowledged my point at last. The present of DRM or not on the digital files that are sold does not affect the amount of unauthorised copying to any significant extent.
Well I acknowledge that you CLAIMED that. The evidence of the music industry is quite the contrary. Hell, the strudy that YOU cite says grudgingly admits that piracy is responsible for 20 % of the decline. The music industry claims an even larger percentage.
Let's see you answer a question. How do you know that sales of nonDRM books wouldn't have been even greater than they were had they had DRM?
