It seems like there is very little pirated content for schools (textbooks) in the piracy scene. Here in Germany, e-books are becoming normal in education.

So I ask you, especially the Germans among you, if you know of resources for pirated textbooks used in schools and if you are interested in such.

Such books as PDFs are actually useful, as you might imagine, since proprietary apps (several) are standard.

      Yes the fmhy wiki is where the good stuff is. Anna’s archive is the best as it compiles books from both zlib and libgen, albeit with a week or so delay between updates. The second best is the CSE’s and if you can’t find any from there, then it’s much harder.

      If it’s impossible to find, then either nobody has bothered to rip it and it has some drm then in that case, your best bet is splitting the cost between others or borrowing an account (you could also try ripping it yourself then).
