I'd just like to point out that just last week I purchased a couple of fully legit ebooks that had horribly, glaringly obvious OCR errors in them that would have been caught by even the most cursory spellcheck (nice work, Baen/Webscription!). Nothing to prove that those pirate books didn't start out with a tasty DRM wrapping and nutritious OCR-error filling straight from the publisher.
