Now, ethically, what happens if the uploader prefixes all files with something like the following:
"This file is intended for use by those who own a legal copy of the work in another form, or in countries in which the copyright on this work has expired. If you do not meet these requirements, please do not use this file."
How would that change the ethics, or even the legality, of uploading?
(I would also be inclined to add "or in cases where the work is out of print and cannot be obtained through legal commercial means", but that muddies the waters from a legal point of view.)
