Illegal Copies Of Half-Blooded Prince Already Online…:
The sixth book in the Harry Potter series, the fastest-selling book of all time, has become among the quickest to fall prey to Internet piracy, with illicit copies available online within hours of its release.
Tech-savvy fans of the boy wizard teamed up to scan the entire 607 page book into digital form, with unauthorized e-book copies appearing online less than 12 hours after “Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince” went on sale on Saturday.
