Kup is right - about two thirds of the reason that I pirate things is because for what you pay the level of availability is absurd combined with point blank stupid regional licensing.

I've been rereading the Star War Expanded Universe books over the last few years. The first four books of the X-Wing series are available as individual downloads through Amazon Kindle. The next five? Only available if you purchase the full bundle of nine books.

All nineteen books in the New Jedi Order series? You can only purchase them digitally in this region in German.

Han Solo Trilogy? Definitely available digitally, just not in your region.
