This is interesting, especially because; If there is any author who has had their books
"Pirated", it would be John Grisham. And yet he is seeing increased sales.

"The emergence of eBooks is phenomenal. A year ago, my last book, "The Confession" was published. It was the first time we released the digital version of the book the same day as the hardback. After one year, my total sales are 40% digital and 60% hardback and the numbers have gone up. That's obviously good news for me because more people are reading the books."

Another factor would be that his books would be among the most often "Casually pirated"
or "Shared", the thing that DRM is intended to prevent. And yet, he is seeing increased
sales. Kinda makes you wonder what his sales would be without DRM?

Luck;
Ken
