"Attributor’s FairShare Guardian™ service discovered that over 9 million pirated book copies were downloaded in a recent study of ~1,000 books of various genres.
These free downloads represent potential losses of $2.75-3 billion to the book publishing industry.
Online book piracy represents roughly 10% of total United States book sales.12
On average, nearly 10,000 copies of every book published are downloaded for free, led by titles in the Business and Investing genre, which average over 13,000 free downloads per title.
Titles within the Business and Investing, Professional and Technical and Science categories are potentially losing over $1 million per title to online book piracy."
