MINIMIZE piracy? Don't they mean ENCOURAGE? I downloaded Under the Dome a couple days after the hardback release. Not so much because I wanted to read it immediately, I certainly have enough to read, but because I felt manipulated. I was willing to pay hbook price for my ebook (even though that is highway robbery) but I resented being forced to buy a dead tree book I didn't want. Now, I did buy the legitimate version when it came out, and I still haven't started reading it. But all of these books that are being delayed? I won't feel I need to buy the legit version whenever they deign to say I am worthy.
