I often download books to check them out, and then buy them if I like them. Technical books are very expensive - $40 - $60. Sometimes they aren't even worth the time of day. Take this book for instance...

Ooh, do tell ... Techgage should have more smilies. I wanted to put a wide-eyed but not totally freaked-out :eek: face here. :p

Survival of the fittest, yo. Coporate darwinism? Also, wasn't the UK going to implement some kind of three-strikes law whereby you would lose your internet connection if caught pirating three times?
