I would never go to all the trouble of scanning a book. If I own a paper and ink copy, I would not have a problem with downloading the file.
The only such books I have are the LOTR ones, which I downloaded from a Pocket PC site ages ago. I would have happily purchased the eBook versions, but they are not to be found.
As much as I enjoy LOTR, and have read many times, some of the newer writers, especially George R R Martin and Robin Hobb are currently producing works that are at least as good if not even better. (IMO)
