there are definitely more pdf’s saved on my laptop than I‘ll ever get the chance to read. I’ve got a bunch from papers on black holes and quantum physics to snippets of franz kafka’s letters to milena. I’ll never stop downloading pdf’s.
obviously a little immoral. don’t pirate every book you read. physical books are cooler anyway. but having access to such a wealth of information for free is so beautiful and shouldn’t be demonized. being able to find & read out of print or rare books through torrenting or little downloads is bonkers. people a century ago couldn't have dreamt of something like this
