I ticked once in a while, since I have about 20-25 books obtained from the "DarkNet". All are books I already own, which have yet to emerge in digital form. Once in a while I look them up in Calibre and do a search to see if they've become available as e-books. If or when I find that they are, I'll happily buy them. In several cases (though not all, I think) I have also e-mailed the authors to tell them I've done this and to say I hope their books will be released as e-books soon.
I don't consider this pirating, but for the purposes of the poll I suppose it serves as such.
