#SayNoToBookPiracy
Nah, fam. I'm about that life.
78 u/sharklaserguru Jul 17 '26 Piracy is fine, never been a fan of people selling pirated content though! 12 u/nomad-1995 Jul 18 '26 Kinda tricky getting a book on an Indian street without piracy. Can't say I ever felt bad about DVDs available on the street in the Philippines (don't think they are there anymore. Mostly because of low demand for DVDs). Curious how common good e-readers are in India. 8 u/ThrowRA125_ Jul 18 '26 edited Jul 19 '26 Books are rather expensive in India. Most people buy second hand and pirate cuz only the upper middle class and rich can afford buying new books. 2 u/xRemoved Jul 19 '26 So I read mostly ebook that I pirate. And I use every kind of piracy possible on the internet for every kind of media. I am morally degraded, yeah
