No matter what the commodity, there will always be pilfering of some
kind down the supply chain.  The final cost of the good must include
some allowance for the loss.

As far as digital books, most people won't know how to misappropriate
them and thus they will cover the cost of those who do know.

It's a fact of life.  Whenever you pay your $1.20 for your Snickers
candy bar, you are also supporting the guy who just obtained his
via the five-finger discount.
