It'd be interesting to see a survey of ebook pirates to see how much they read, and whether they would purchase a book if piracy were not an option (or, to be more thorough, what conditions would need to be met for purchase to become probable).

I see this argument brought up a lot and my take on it is that it really doesn't matter. Whether they read them or not, they have still committed an illegal act by possessing them. It's a moral thing and a criminal act and is disrespectful of society and the author's right to make a living from their work.
