I love this, but for me the biggest issue is that I don't own anything on kindle. I wish there was a way to easily buy and own ebooks like they're was with songs and bandcamp

    Not a lawyer, but if you've already paid for something (i.e. "bought" an eBook on Amazon), then you've done your part to ensure the creator eats tonight. Pirating a digital copy of it that you can read/move/engage with wherever you want is no longer even slightly morally questionable at that point.

    I would, but for the most part, most of the things I read don't seem to show up on torrent lists

    I'm guessing you're looking on public trackers. Private ones like MAM, should have 90% of what you're looking for. Out of curiosity, mind posting few books you haven't been able to find?
