Well, I come from a games background, and we sweat HARD over the darknet. So maybe my focus is misplaced - but when eBook growth is as explosive as it has been, in a few years I think authors will be sweating too. And it's now, now in a few years, when the basic policies to deal with this need to be put in place.
(With RPG PDF's, actually, I agree it's not a massive deal...for starters, no DRM, for second prices are quite reasonable (with a few glaring exceptions, which tend to sell poorly, heh) and thirdly you're marketing to people who tend to either be darknet horders or very good at actually buying stuff. What they're not is representative of Joe Book Buyer.)
