or not pay for the ebook, not have the hassle of having to deal with whatever digital prison they put the contents in. AND not financially reward the ones doing it.

Hmm, tough choice... not :)

the idea that not paying for an author's book doesn't negatively affect the author is absurd.

there are valid reasons to pirate books sometimes but at the end of the day, someone has to pay something into the system to keep books getting published
