I have never used any of the music download sites. Please list your favorite. A lot of authors use the service MUSO.com, and you can buy membership for as little as $15 a month for up to 50 takedowns if you sign up via the advertisement on ereads.com (look for the copyright/piracy blog). Torrents are one of the trickiest to get down, because no sooner does one go down that another pops up eg Hundreds of 'innovators' try to make money off authors by selling subscriptions through paypal and making illegal links to ebooks often hosted on rapidshare, Scribd, Sendspace etc etc available to their subscribers. One pirate site, ebookee sold for $6 million dollars last year. Piracy is big business. You will also find a lot of piracy on EBay, where pirates download collections of thousands of in-copyright books, burn them onto DVDs and sell tens of copies every week. There are pirates on Facebook, on Word Press, on Blogger. Everywhere, all ripping off authors and trading ebooks and being paid by advertisers (who like the high traffic these sites attract.) Google makes a great deal of money off piracy which is why they allegedly fund sites/groups such as EFF and Tech Dirt to fight any changes in copyright laws to protect authors.
