CNet News has the results of a recent study on eBook Piracy. Have a look at the post, there’s a graph and everything.
I thought it would be nice addition to yesterday’s eBook Rumors post. Notice in the survey they blame iPad’s release in part for the increase in piracy, and fail to mention that the biggest publishers in the industry jacked the prices of eBooks up just prior to iPad’s release. (Didn’t that have any impact?)
Read along and you find the survey author, Attributor, “has announced partnerships with Macmillan and Kensington Publishing Corp.” So, we begin to see why eBook pricing is missing from the list of reasons for the increase in piracy. The survey provider has vested interests.
