I must admit that I have been looking for a decent pirated copy of this book (all the footers are missing from the versions I found). This is for two main reasons -
a) I am unable to buy the E-book version
b) I am not in the mood for scanning my PB version of the book
Since I am unable to do a) or b) then I will either forgo the E-book version or I will eventually scan my PB version.
I do not feel that either constitute as theft or are morally wrong since I have already purchased the book twice (I lost my first copy). I have also bought many many books of both Pratchett's and Gaimans in both PB and Digital formats and I will continue to purchase the books when they are available...
