The corollary is that a book has to be in-print, or commercially distributed in e-book form, to have any sales.
If neither new printed copies, or commercially sold e-books are available, then taking down pirate sites, or even an archive like archive.org, only diminishes the collection and availability of human knowledge and literature.
