^ Re anti-piracy promoting piracy ^

My mum wanted to buy me Morrissey's autobiography for Xmas on Kindle from Amazon but despite 1/2 an hour of total bafflement, she discovered that you can't 'gift' a Kindle book. Which is just crazy.

So plan-B, she purchased an Amazon voucher to the value of the E-Book and gave me that. On Xmas day I then spent another 1/2 hour or more trying and trying to purchase the E-book onto my Kindle and eventually gave up. "Please Amazon I'm begging you, all I want is to do is give you my Money!".

Plan C, I spent the voucher on a DVD and downloaded the E-Book illegally. It downloaded in seconds and I could read it immediately. No fuss, what service these criminals give to their customers! However I then found that my Kindle wouldn't accept the book no matter how many times I uploaded it seemingly because It had not gone through Amazon's software?

Skip to 5 months later and my Brother bought me the actual book for my Birthday. Praise physical objects, you never let me down!
