Interesting Thoughts on Illegally Downloading Literature

from the Dowbrigade.


If any of the rest of you want to illegally download books in order to bypass or protest the American publishing system, I recommend that you follow the librarian’s advice and borrow your books for free from a library. Yes, indirectly you’re still supporting the publishers, but you’re also not participating in illegal activities by breaking copyright law. Take advantage of interlibrary loan programs, too. Your local library may not have all the of Philip K. Dick books, but a librarian could probably get all of them for you by borrowing them from other institutions.
