Ethical problem no doubt but the "copyright infringement" thing depends on the country you live in.
For example in Spain or Poland (and possibly in many other european countries) you can legally download eBooks that had been illegaly shared. It's called fair use (and is legal) as long as you don't share it yourself which means you can't use peer2peer networks but Rapidshare, Megaupload and the like are all fine to download from.
To make it clear: this is not the way it works in the US.
