[ QUOTE ] [ QUOTE ] [ QUOTE ] [ QUOTE ] Why don't people who do this have a scanner that outputs text. [/ QUOTE ] Because it's a lot faster to take pictures most likely, unless you have some really fancy (expensive) scanner that is specifically made for books. [/ QUOTE ] I guess, my scanner will scan a page and output text in PDF form. I thought this was pretty standard. [/ QUOTE ] Wtf dude. Have you ever seen a book? Can you ballpark the ways in which it might be harder to scan an entire book into text than it would be to scan an individual sheet of paper? [/ QUOTE ] Yeah, but even if you didn't want to ruin the binding, there are plenty of scanners that are quicker to use than digital cameras. I've had to scan in books before and it would probably take <45 minutes for this book. [/ QUOTE ] It's also a possibility that this guy just had access to the book for a limited time and this was the best way to get a copy out. From what I've heard they are under pretty tight security and maybe no one would miss one book for a few hours rather than a stolen book. |

[/ QUOTE ] yeah my guess, if this is legit, and i don't know if it is, some guy smuggled a digital camera into the warehouse and was ducked behind some crates or something. |

Re: Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Leaked
i think i'll just wait 72 hours until it comes out and pay $17 to own it and read it anywhere instead of trying to exercise my eyes reading a photo of each page

Re: Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Leaked
We will see soon if that shiat is fake. Looks pretty damn real to me.
I only bet money on Potter to live and Snape or whatever his name is to die on Bodog. Those lines all went apeshiat before they were pulled. Again if this is a hoax then NH sir to the person who did it. -Brendan |

Re: Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Leaked
Yeah, it has been confirmed to be a fake based on page numbers and writing styles. Im kind of glad, I wanted to read it, not know everything that happened.
