I don't think that their worst nightmare is that everyone can download pirated copies — it's if everyone does.

His statement abused me. Of course there will be people stealing stuff, but thats _minority_. Putting everyone in the same cart (either you with us, or you will see everyone stealing your stuff) matches Jobs overall ego.
3. Hold back your books from Amazon. Without a way for customers to buy your ebooks, they will steal them. This will be the start of piracy and once started there will be no stopping it.
Publishers must realise that all books are already available in pirated variants, right? Their worst nightmare - everybody being able to download any book without paying them, is already a reality.
