Nope, not in the US. If I can see it I can shoot it.

How do these relate to piracy? A better question would be to ask if I ever stole my neighbor's wallet, or removed tools from my neighbor's shed without his permission. I have done neither.

Give me an e-library with all the books published from the past 30 years for a reasanoble price ($4 max) and I would hire/ buy without any trouble to find an obscure (OCR-ed) version.
