Supporting only artists and publishers that you agree with makes perfect sense and I completely agree with that model, but theft is not something that should be endorsed.

Do we have to go through all this again with everybody? Okay, once again:
Sharing a digital copy is not theft. It is not theft under the law. It is not theft by definition. It is not even theft morally and ethically.
Now, when you can actually tell the difference between one action and another, maybe, just maybe there'll be some discussion about intellectual copyright and 'supporting artists'. And if you think purchasing an ebook or pbook by an author is supporting them, you've got another thing coming, matey, boy.
The next ignorant idiot who accuses me of theft won't get such a polite response.
