That's probably what kills the pirate market stone dead, right there. Most people will look at that and go "yeah, right". To be usable you first have to convert the book to a decent format, making it nigh on impossible to track pirate copies.

That said, there are sites that scan and build pdfs-of-images of stuff like readers digest, and that continues to amaze me.
