E-Books, best places to get them?

Tattorack@lemmy.world to Piracy: ꜱᴀɪʟ ᴛʜᴇ ʜɪɢʜ ꜱᴇᴀꜱ@lemmy.dbzer0.com – 292 points –

I want to get back into reading, so I'm thinking of getting a Paperwhite. But I have no idea if it's possible to transfer files to it from a computer, and I have no experience with pirating books.

Do I go to the same places I torrent movies and games or are there special places dedicated to E-Books?

EDIT: So many awesome answers on here! You guys have been very helpful. Thanks a lot!

I'll Third this as well. You're first week of seeding will net you 10s of thousands of "points" and "wedges" you can trade for VIP status, etc.

Just download a ton of freeleech books, seed em for 72 Hours minimum, done. Longer you seed, the better for everyone.

Also, you'll find anything and everything you are looking for. In every format...

Piling on to this, part of what makes MAM great is that you get bonus points for seeding even if no one is downloading. Just keep your torrents running indefinitely and it won't be long before you have free VIP forever, a 10:1 ration and still end up with more points than you could possibly give away

Piling in to say been a member for 10+ years, it's my go-to for any books (text and audio), and with the system they have, my ratio is somewhere in the 300+ range. All by keeping around 100 book torrents alive on an old raspberry pi and using the bonus points.
