This title just wants me to still throw a useless stone in an already lost battle: "book piracy" used to mean "Steal a book content and sell it putting you as the author". That's the original meaning of the word.

Copyright-infriging a book does not sound as serious as "piracy" or "theft" but these two words are actually misused.
