(Which strikes out another way to beat piracy... even obscurity doesn't protect you from being pirated.)

You forget, some are pirates anyway just because. Those are the sales youll never get, theyve been mentioned often. The problem is you dont know which is which and really this is just a waste of time trying to figure it out. Youll honestly never know what kind of pirates there were or how much you lost if you lost anything.
But Im confused. First you said you were alerted by Google about a download link, now you know of a torrent? Im wondering where this torrent is, does it have any comments? Anyone say anything about it? Is it well seeded? Does it have a listing as to how many times its been downloaded? Or is it completely dead? Does it have any other books or are they all just you?
