Digital pirates, who for years have tormented the music and film industries, have found a new source of plunder in e-book publishing.Yes, you heard right, e-book piracy has just started. Well, okay, publishers have just kind of figured out that it exists.
But don't be worried, e-books are about to explode. Well, maybe if they get cheaper. Although your e-book is probably basically BetaMax.
In other news, if you understand the internet you can make about a billion dollars consulting for publishing. Get on it.
Pirates don't scare me.
