Food for thought.
There's a difference in logistics though. In person, I would say that buying one manga and lending it around can get it to (if you're very liberal about lending things) 200 people as a very gracious estimate. On the other hand, people who buy manga and then scan it online are buying it once and giving it to *millions* of people.
