I agree. Although I would change it to "convince you to buy your own damn books" rather than being a source of free books.

Whether ebooks or pbooks, the idea of always sharing my books doesn't appeal to me. It's okay once in a while, but not on a regular basis, I think. I mean, why should I be the one who spends hundreds of dollars on books, and then give it to you for free?

That's sort of my approach to piracy, as well. Sure, I'm not a fan of copyright infringement; but if I'm being completely honest, my reasons for not distributing books is entirely selfish. Why should I provide for free something that I spent my hard earned money on?

You want books? Go get your own.
