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.

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.
