I know we need to not discuss piracy techniques here, so I won't give details, but all of you who are looking at bit-torrents as a measure of piracy are looking in the wrong place. That is where video piracy is big but not even a flea on the back of the book market.

IRC channel DCC transfers are the volume of book piracy today. Available titles absolutely dwarf torrent listings. I suspect the reason is the much smaller size of book files compared to video and music. I don't know how to measure those DCC transfers but someone else here might?
