How is this different (except for maybe having to have an encryption key) that people who upload to Megaupload or RapidShares....or even create a shared folder in Dropbox? Maybe those are not specifically *for pirates by pirates*, but the usage is the same IMO.
Personally, I've always felt friend-to-friend sharing was ethically acceptable (despite its legality) for reasons that have been said a million times here (already do it with paper books).
But I've seen websites where people post they've uploaded books to Megaupload or various other sites and post the link. What would stop that kind of sharing of this other site?
