There are plenty of places to pirate e-books, audiobooks, textbooks, any book you want. This won’t put a dent into it; thankfully.
care to name any in particular?
Audiobookbay is very popular and https://rargb.to/ apparently caters to e-books. I found those just by googling. Between VPNs and bit torrent, there’s not a whole lot I guess you can’t get.

Maybe this is pointless to ask, but please don't steal.
Also, consider that a reading habit is affordable to most of us, but not to everyone in the world. Books, specially educational books, shouldn't be a luxury.
Dont worry, we love physical books... They will be fine
Once my collection of books reached 300 a higher power (my wife) ordered me to switch to ebooks and audiobooks.
