Had the same happening with Pragmatic Programmers. I must admit that I would not think too badly about somebody who decided to torrent a PDF of a hardcover book he owns. Thinking about it, maybe publishers could give out PDFs if there was a good way to prove ownership of the paper edition? If you ordered through Manning, they know you bought it, if you order through Amazon, they don't.
