Most people won't go to the trouble of scanning / photographing pages and then editing the format to create their own epub. Nor would they accept receiving one from someone else as that would deny the seller/author the income
Piracy is essentially theft from a creator. Thankfully, I believe the number of people reading a pirated book is very small in proportion to the total in the book world |

The images created using the Canon DSLR were from the US version. This pretty much precludes them from being used to create the ebook of the UK edition that I saw.

I have one of those as well. Converts to epub 67% then stalls. I had one a long time ago that did that as well. I'll just mark it to read and once done, delete it so it doesn't trouble me further. This time it's a UK publisher, but I can't see anything else special about it.
