Piracy

Hi All, I came across this site this evening. They have a FB page which liked my FB page and so I took a look at theirs and then followed the link to their website. It seems they are, in fact, book lovers, but with a mission of providing free copies. There are some recognizable authors/books on their lists of free pdf's for download, including at least one Smashwords author. kzccrazyreaders.weebly.com/index.htmlwww.facebook.com/Kczcrazyreaders?fref=pbAny thoughts? I recall reading somewhere, and perhaps it was within one of the Smashwords guides, that piracy may/may not be a bad thing, depending on the author's view; that it may be akin to giving away free copies on purpose to help spread the word that the book exists. But on principal, it is piracy... Stephanie

I was able to access the Facebook page, but not the website. It appears to have been taken down.

Well, I am glad to see that. I see the link to the website on their FB page has been removed as well.
