@JSWolf. I sometimes think it is just sheer greed. I think the large publishers do in fact get how easy it is to find pirated ebooks. And it scares them beyond reason. Because they see every download of a pirate ebook as being a lost sale, and calculate their "losses" by applying full retail price to every download they estimate. They should be thinking aren't we lucky! Everyone could get our books for free and we'd have no business, but hardly any of them choose to! How can we keep it that way? Instead they sometimes seem to go out of their way to alienate their customers.
