People on here complain about not being able to share their ebooks the way they can do with paper books. Well uploading it is basically the same as leaving your old books on a shelf in the lobby for anyone to pick up.
They aren't getting anything out of it as far as I know, except the satisfaction of sharing the book with others who might enjoy it as well.
Just because it's there, doesn't mean that everyone is downloading it to read.
Right now I have a very narrow interest in certain books, if a book isn't in the genre of what I'm interested in reading, I'm not going to bother to buy it or download it.
