I started pirating ebooks about 14-15 years ago when I simply did not have access to English language books. Well truthfully the first ebook I read was not even pirated it was Burroughs Princess of Mars from project Gutenberg but such easy access to books made me look for more and I stumbled on what is referred to as the dark net around here.
For someone that loves to read but had very limited access to books it was like winning the lottery first 5 years I might have read over a thousand books. Now I live somewhere its easy to get digital goods so I do purchase ebooks but if I am unable buy a book because of geographic restrictions or if I see a book priced 2-3 times for me compared to people from other countries I pirate it.
