I think that much like music piracy pushed the sales of iPods in the past and present, book piracy will push Kindle sales in the future (not that I like the Kindle, mind you, but it seems to be the device that has created the most brand awareness in the eBook world). I am glad this is the case; I support piracy in general, but I specially support piracy against the price gouging college textbook companies who take advantage of the inelastic demand for their products by overcharging and releasing new editions every few years.
