Probably.
But Amazon doesn't spend their time fighting ebook piracy any more than they spend it fighting tablet hackers. (That is B&N).

And, we all know that even Kindle books that *are* available at other ebookstores get "pirated". So "piracy" of Amazon Publishing books was going to happen anyway. (Its OT: but "piracy" of commercial ebooks is a wee bit different than the pbook ocr-ing "piracy".)

Betcha their spreadsheets have a section for "estimated piracy rate".
