@Hitch. Sadly being ripped-off is bad in any business, particularly so when there is no physical product. I would love to have the money I was not paid, particularly in the earlier years. Sadly there is no better solution than payment up front, which is not always possible.
On the other hand, why is there still a basically thriving publishing industry, electronic or otherwise? Why is Amazon doing so well selling ebooks? I've given my views in previous posts. I certainly have no monopoly on the truth, but it seems that a large number of people simply don't download pirate copies, or perhaps both buy and pirate in different circumstances.
