A 7" e-ink screen has a resolution of 1264x1680 pixels, an 8" e-ink screen has a resolution of 1440x1920. So those screen captures have a noticeable higher resolution than my Sage approximately that of a 9" 300 PPI screen.

Oddly, I agree that the screen capture results are inferior but that is due more to not being able to search the ebook. The OCRred flavour is much closer to the original ebook in that sense. And on yet another hand, I do not approve of the whole piracy thing.
