While browsing a social news site the other day, I came across a link to an e-book search engine. Sadly, alongside the many free e-books available, such as those from Gutenberg, thousands of pirated e-books were being freely offered. I won't reproduce the details of the site here and I ask that, if you know of it (or others), you keep it to yourself too, writes PC World's Keir Thomas in an interesting article that can be found online HERE
I seriously urge you all to read it and decide for yourselves if eBook piracy is the problem it seems to be and please remember most writers, with the exception of guys like Stephen King, James Patterson and several others, often struggle to make a reasonable living. So buy your eBooks legally folks.
