So apparently someone stole the new HP book, and i guess there are now bootleg copies running around. Anyone checked this out yet? Know where to get it?

Yep, it's out. All you pirates can get the .doc file from limewire. I expect I'll wait until i can get my hands on a hard copy before actually read it though.

Beware most pirated versions, however. Most are fan fictions that always degenerate into some twisted lovefest between the schoolboys and girls.

So is this actually true? Where did you hear it? I LOVE Harry Potter and I want this book now if I can have it (yes I'll still buy it definitely). I tried downloading a bunch of different copies on limewire and so far all lame fanfics.
I got so excited I even asked one of my party 10/20 6-max tables if they liked harry potter. I got laughed at, yes.

More often it's schoolboy and schoolboy. Or, schoolboy and male teacher.
That slash stuff can get sick.

I think it's pretty obvious that the answer is yes.

I generally try and avoid knowing stuff about the next books if I can, but it doesn't matter, I only read the beginning of it and what I saw was pretty obvious.

From the links that have been posted, it would seem that it's not to be found on the internet.
They tried to sell it to a paper, so how in the world would it end up on the net? It's a hardcopy for god sakes, who in the hell would have an E-copy?
Just over a month to go.....

Optical Character Recognition (or Reader, not quite sure).
Software that scans to a txt type document.

Woah, just skimmed the first couple chapters of the versions I got off limewire (they were all the same) and it's definitly fan fiction. Disregard my previous post.
