To paraphrase, “Books are technology and every technology evolves. The book has been about the same since Gutenberg in the 1430’s, but Kindle ...

Three new illegal eBook download sites were reported today alone. I have a Google alert set to my book and I usually receive 1 or 2 links a week with free illegal downloads of my book. Today there were three.
