I don't know whether or not I would have found it on my own since I never Googled past the the sites that I originally found. Since it was the first thing I came up with, I suspect it would be for many others too. If they believed that was all there was, there would be no reason to look further. It was not on MR. |

Belle, unless I misunderstand, it is against the rules here to publically facilitate piracy. So posting in a forum is off limits but PM's are not. It is a question of MobileRead's liability. If I'm wrong then hopefully a moderator will set me straight.

Yes, that's the way I take it to be. Also, while you can't name sites or detail exactly how to pirate files, vague references aren't censured. For instance, one could say that one good way of finding a book is to-- if you have access to a print version or a sample from Amazon or Google books-- pick a reasonably unique sentence from the book and paste it into Google and see what happens. If, for instance, a theoretical poster had been searching today for an ebook (purchasable or otherwise) of The Neverending Story with no luck, the theoretical poster could look at the sample pages from Amazon, choose the words "coreander looked at the boy for a while", plug that theoretical string of text into Google, and theoretically see what theoretically happens.

But a lot of sites are like that - the concentration is usually on things that young males like: current movies, current music, current software, and wallpaper images of cars or nude women. ![]() |

That is why, perhaps, the moral condemnations posted here and in other places doesn't sway them. And that is why those of you (speaking generally here) who use that argument are not getting amount of affirmations of your argument that you might have expected, and why, when you start making comparisons to people breaking into your home or people stealing cars, you get quizzical looks. You think you're comparing apples with apples and see the lack of universal agreement as a moral failing, while others see your examples as comparing apples with oranges and irrelevant to the topic.
