All that this copyright law stuff will do is to encourage people to download pirate stuff. Same as mp3s.
Does anyone here seriously suggest that, because the MR servers are in Canada, nobody in the USA downloads ebooks from it which are PD in Canada but copyright in the US?
Nearly all the books and authors mentioned in this thread are available in pirated pdf or txt. Just Google them.
I know that we all think pirate books are terribly wrong, but could someone explain to me why it is illegal for me to download and possess a pirated copy?
I just mean possess it, not distribute it in any way.
Exactly, which law says that it is illegal to possess a pirated ebook?
Thanks. I am very confused.
