I have been told many times over that the ebook industry, much like the music industry, is fraught with
Piracy! How will I ever make any money from my novels with all these pirates on the digital seas, stealing and whatnot!?
And why would pirates be interested in my novel? Should I really be worried about piracy?
Pirates only highjack novels that are marketable, novels that sell. Why waste time and effort pirating unsaleable trash novels in the seedy digital black market? Pirates only steal what's worth stealing.
Whats the real issue I face as an Indie author trying to spread the word about my novels?
Obscurity is my enemy, not piracy.
To be pirated is a complement, I have succeeded in catching the pirate's attention. He wouldn't steal my ebook if it wasn't valuable. At least he knows I exist.
Perhaps he even read my novel ... that would make me happy :)
