So at best hey might represent only 80 % of downloads, perhaps even down to 50 % depending on how many downloads occur on mirror sites?
Hence, the confusion deepens. Too bad, because it would really be interesting to get a general idea of the effects it might have on sales. According to released sales figures it doesn't look like the publishing industry is hurting, off course that doesn't mean their figures couldn't be even more impressive sans free downloads. (Was that a double negative? Maybe I can find some adult English class)
