Harry, you have my complete sympathy on your work being stolen.
Now if you were in the US, since it is a civil matter you could take the pirates to court for compensation.
Note: Metallica did that to a single mom who's son was downloading all their songs from Napster. (Personally, I think the son was probably doing more than that since he and his mom were the only one they went after.)
Yes, Metallica won. I don't think the judge liked the woman's self pity defense.
