"Free" books aren't free

Boosting the signal-- Saundra Mitchell eloquently explains the impact of e-piracy on authors.

My take-- fans who think they are helping by illegally distributing or downloading my books might just as well commit identify theft and max out my Visa card. In the long run, that would be less financially painful.

I loved the commnter who said a "friend" told him he never pays for music because "Why pay for something when you can get it for free?" Someone needs to tell that guy that's the shoplifter's philosophy. He might not feel that way if someone took something of his.
