The problem with your argument is that one does not directly pay for each library book one uses. Thus, the direct cost of a library book is the same as a pirated ebook.

Also, yes a copy was purchased for the library. But, for every pirated ebook out there a pbook or ebook had to have been purchased in order to be pirated.
