A few months ago I decided to see what was out there. So looked at isohunt and used google and downloaded some, quickly had several 1000s of ebooks. A lot was duplicates, some I already had read, but still most likely it was more than I ever would be able to read in the rest of my life.
That was when I decided to get a ebook reader.
I quickly found out that most of what I had found was unreadable on my ebook reader, and I started to investigate different converters. While spending time on that I bought some ebooks that I was interested in.
Now I find that most of what I read is either paid for or available legally for free.
A few books I couldn't find any other way, so I downloaded and converted. Rather fun to fiddle with css and margins and stuff, but idiotic if I put a value on my time. But it is actually rather nice to read a book that you have formatted yourself. That adds another (small) dimension to reading a book.
I have easy access to a LOT of pirated stuff, but still most of what I read is perfectly legal. Free or bought.
I have not bought anything with drm. Will try hard to stay clear...
