I chose profit because...

I tend to think that the more profit the more content available for me.
-----
I prefer not to steal anyone's hard work. I buy what I read. In a perfect world there wouldn't be people who think they are entitled to have for free what someone else has worked on...

The fact is, I like my authors, I'd like them to keep providing me with entertaining reads, by purchasing their work, I participate in their ability to do so.
Would I prefer to see more realistic prices on e-books? Of course, but that doesn't mean I'm going to steal their work. It just means that for some authors I don't read them as much or as often as I would if the prices were more reasonable.

I don't take into account the "industry" because that's just a cop out. I pay for my food, my gas and my housing... if I don't like the prices at this store, I shop elsewhere, I'll drive down the block or over into the next town to buy my gas, I pay my mortgage because I like my house and living where I do.
Why would I think my entertainment is any different?
