More than 9 million page impressions and more than 1.4 million expansive downloads in July alone (own data): The eBook Warez page boox.to is the terror of the book industry. In this form it is, however, soon history: The Pirates announced a paywall, which will reduce the range of the platform dramatically.
"We're clearly a limit where we can no longer cope with the onslaught of users and the performance suffers," says boox.to the planned monthly fee in a blog post. For a hardware upgrade expansive is lacking of money that should now come directly from the user. And because voluntary donations to difficult to plan (and probably too low) are, run on a monthly fee no way.
"We are tremendously technical upgrades and power up our range of ebooks right. Where we have been bought primarily to individual stocks, we will buy from end 09 to 2013 in the depths expansive -. Backlist of publishers, complete series "
In the meantime over 300 comments on the two blog posts, the mood is split. In addition to some sympathetic tones to step much of "rip off" the speech. So writes a user:
At first glance, it's great news for the industry: The access and download expansive speeds of boox.to will decrease as a result of the payment barrier into the abyss. At the same time lose the book pirates around the spiegelbest even missed Robin Hood aura.
Some readers will certainly give attention also for legal alternatives to "eBook Warez subscription", which could benefit the most eBook flat rate Skoobe. However: The closure of the Bücherstube and of course the complex movie streaming (keywords: kino.to, movie2k) are examples enough for the user mobility expansive in terms of "illegal content supply". eBook Warez remains a problem
Checked with the quasi-closure of a large download page shelved see the piracy problem with the book industry would be naive arg - the alternatives are not just waiting in the wings, they are already online and are strongly attract traffic from October.
These visitors were only ask a convenient and powerful content platforms to Checkout - Spotify makes it impressively expansive in the music fallow before, the streaming service has the piracy swamp in some countries expansive have virtually dried up (at the cost huge losses).

Censorship is written here large.
Echter Man in this comment column has been "censored" not a single post - check first, then cry :)Udo an illegal offer with legal portals with correspondingly very different calculations to compare - not everything lags, is a comparative!
As a long time as observers of the scene I am sure that the works beyond the 'paywall' expansive will quickly find their way into the open net - "Do not Make Money with warez" in many places still taken very seriously.
I bought the iBookstore books. After I realized that this DRM protected, I was sorely disappointed. I can not give the book, I can not read it on my PC, I can not read it on Android, if I'm going to change platforms. expansive What shoud that ???
Way with DRM - and ye took me back as a customer! I want to read my books when where and how I want. And I will give to my girlfriend. As a real book also. Finally, I pay indeed almost exactly the same price as for a printed book, but get a much cheaper expansive digital copy!
