then we have the false delays in e-publishing which is a bunch of horseshit. I both bought and pirated Under The Dome because I refused to wait, and I am about to start on book 12 of The Wheel of Time as I'll be damned if I am going to wait for them to epublish a book a month of that series especially as I owned MANY copies of those books, wanted to read them again before reading #12, and now that I have an ereader I don't see the need to deal with a bulky book or be bonked in the head with it when I fall asleep.

it's time for the publishers to smell the new reality
Nothing you have said so far in this thread justifies your theft. The truth is you want a product and you think it is alright for you to steal it because it is not available to you in the way that you want it, at the price you want it, and/or the time you want it.

That is definately not a valid legal reason to steal from someone. IMO it also is not a moral reason for your behavior.
