The line is not clear and I am aware that I make ethical decisions that others disagree with.

I don't like piracy. There are some cases where I understand why people would pirate books but for the most part, I don't think that the various excuses hold water. That and $5 might get your a drink at Starbucks. I do think it is an ethical decision. For me, if it means depriving the author of money, it is wrong. The author has a right to make a living and anyone depriving him/her of money owed them for selling their e-book by pirating is just in the wrong. That is my ethical take on it.

Others disagree, I get that. (shrugs)
