Stop Piracy


This message is for all book lover and those who read the pirated copies rather than buying a original book. Fact is piracy is a huge menace. It is too gigantic to fight. It is deplorable. It is stealing.

All authors work hard to write their books.The time and effort invested in writing a book is MASSIVE, to say the least. The least a reader can do to honour that talent and appreciate it, is to BUY a copy. The price of the book is less than that of a movie ticket, or two cups of coffee at a Barista or CCD.
Authors and artists make a living out of their talent. Nobody pays them a salary. The standard royalties are just 7.5 to 10 percent of the cost of the book.

You don’t know how much time they spent to write a book, they had to visit many places, many people of different mentality to get some knowledge and views from people to put in the books, for me I am a simple blogger and I take more than three hours just to write a single article for my blog, then Think how much the authors take to write a whole book of 150 to 300 pages?
 I think the price one pays for one book(Rs.100/- to Rs.250/) is truly the least a reader can do. I do feel very sad to know that all that effort put in, is just STOLEN by piracy. I hope you should also share this article to stop piracy

Please do NOT read pirated copies.
Please buy a book.
