Interesting thread. Personally, I have no qualms about downloading "darknet" editions of pbooks I own, or books written by long-dead authors. Two personal examples are the Harry Potter books and Robert Heinlein's juveniles. In the former case, I have bought two copies of each hardback (one for me, one for my granddaughter), and in the latter, both Heinlein and his wife Ginny have passed w/o children.
