[heavy_ot] Piracy is not stealing - author actually loses nothing from it, and .torrent user is not guaranteed to buy a book if unable to download a .pdf Futhermore, .torrent distribution may be a good advertisement and help to find out if a russian-speaking coder wants to actually order a 1300+ rur book in english or not. [/heavy_ot]
as for me, i prefer paper books over reading from screen, but i'm not interested in d2. I won't buy tdpl in english because of questionable rate of price/usefulness for me, but i'll buy it on russian (for collection), if it will be translated and will have a reasonable price.
