so it is ok, to buy a few sewing and cutting machines and start producing Nike T-shirts? Not much to it. After all, Nike is "artificially" limiting supply by not allowing anyone else to use their brand.

How about art forgery? If the copy is good enough to be mistaken for the original by many experts? Just increasing supply!

Yes, it is impossible to 100% stop illegal copying. Just as it is impossible to stop other crimes. But if the average person recognizes that this is wrong then it is enough to sustain ebooks as a business. Because those few that would then remain downloading and distributing for free would never be prospective buyers anyway.
