For me, that would be ebook piracy. Most authors work at full/part time jobs and even then have trouble making enough money from writing to be able to continue writing never mind the small number of authors who actually make a living from writing without us encouraging piracy.

That many of the ebooks from file sharing sites also have errors that would prevent Amazon from processing them without you having to learn how to edit ebooks to correct those errors can also be a consideration.
