See, and here I was thinking his post outlined how he dealt with every common and possibly justifiable reason for ebook piracy.

1: Price - his books are reasonably priced.
2: Geo-restrictions - anyone can buy them from anywhere.
3: Unknown author/downloading for sampling - he gives away some books for just this purpose.
4: DRM - he has DRM free books.
5: Sharing - Obviously his DRM free books are completely shareable and I get the impression he would have no problem with friends sharing amongst friends rather than someone deciding to upload the book to every internent, anonymous, bestest buddy on the torrent sites.

What more could anyone want?

Besides simply wanting it for free because they feel entitled to have it for free?
