Pirated copies of Harry Potter find themselves on The Pirate Bay

meh my neighbor purchased a copy for me (she works at barnes and noble and i payed for so whatever)

Nice. Employee discount?

Then again, $17.88 @ amazon is pretty damn cheap. :)

Although I sure wish college books would follow suit. $150 books are RETARDED.
 
plus thousands for tuition, housing, food, heating, cooling etc.

upper education in the US is incredibly expensive.

While in Europe, the smarter you are, the cheaper it is, down to the point where it very well could be free. (which is the way it should be)
 
I have the book. But I cant read it for at least 3-4 weeks :(

Im currently reading stephen kings "firestarter" quite an awesome book.
One of the people being experimented on goes crazy and tears out his eyeballs :D

But yeah, must study for exams :cry:


PS - Russianboy if you ruin the ending I will fly over and kick your ASS :roll:
 
The pirate bay has a vast resource of torrents, but people dont seed for shit on there.


This is the most downloaded torrent going for the past few hours since it was leaked.

HP is awesome and a big deal and Ill be saddened when its all over. Im hoping JK goes on the adult version of Harry, Ron and Hermoine! <G>
 
Unlike some I actually bought the book. Something aobut reading on your computer is sickening.

dunno didnt ask :D dont care really
 
I WILL NOT!

Although I will admit to.. ahem, talking to someone that has viewed this "leak".

My book will be here monday, regardless.

Already got mine :p. Visit your local Costco (anyone who hasn't ordered it) or more specifically visit Costco of Arundel Mills (that's where mine was bought)
 
I'm not what sure what the problem is. I read the 6th and 7th books on my computer, I move the monitor to a comfortable position (24 inch, maybe thats why its bearable), and then I read it all. Ironically, I ordered the book too, I dl'ed it because it was out a few days earlier and I didn't feel like waiting. Anyway, the copy I found was a little over a meg large, and very easy to read. Because of the size it was like a 15 second dl, I think buying the book makes up for dl'ing it.
 
at the drawback of being illegal.
Not in countries where non-profit copy restriction infringement isn't a criminal offense.

Oh wait, that's most countries ...
 
Wait.. they photographed EVERY page?

one version I found was litterally scans of each page, with literal hands and fingers holding pages down, that version was like 50 megs. The other copies were probably done by people typing them all out, some of the spelling errors implied the mistake was not made by scanning and putting into word, but rather people typing quickly, and letters getting put on the wrong word. IE, I typ etoo fast an dmess up from time to time
 
nvm i must be part of a community of school children intent on ruining things for ppl

It is. $80k after initial Financial Aid for me.
 
I'm getting my book later... anyone who ruins it gets there ass kicked.
 
the way I look at it is, these rock bands, movie stars and writers all drive around in there ferraris, shopping, partying and making reality tv shows about themselves that they really ARE NOT that short of friggin money, so screw them and screw lining up for 2 days out the front of a book shop with 5000 little nerds all dressed up like witches just to pay 50 for a book.

Sorry J.K.Tolkiinnen (??) sorry metallica and sorry movie stars but you are not getting any of my hard earned money while you live your lavish life...


Aaah that feels much better.

BTW I use torrents all the time. :rockout:

Tolkien made LOTR.

J.K. ROWLING makes the potter series.

If you're too cheap to pay $18 for a really good book... well.. :wtf:
