The American book industry lost an estimated $571 million to book piracy last year, according to a Book Standard report by Rachel Deahl. What’s behind it? “Ironically,” says Deahl, the rapidly increasing outsourcing of everything from editing to production to foreign companies, particular to those in India and China “is a major driver of intellectual-property theft.” As Frank Romano of the Rochester Institute of Technology’s School of Print Media tells Deahl, “The cynical saying goes: The day shift works for the major publishers and the night shift does the pirating.”
