I said, "... to secure it you’ll need to buy an ebook software creator program. I’ve used Easy Ebook Creator Pro in the past (http://www.easyebookpro.com/). I’m not crazy about this method, however, simply because it’s an extra step for the user. And while I understand the desire to not have one’s work redistributed, in reality, it doesn’t happen much. Not enough to really lose sales, imo. But in any case, if you really want to do it that way, then software is the way to go." Regarding getting it onto kindle, you'll need to go through Amazon's createspace.com program. I’ll copy my answer above here regarding protecting your ebook from being copied.

Can you tell me though, what would be, in your opinion, the best way to market or sell an ebook after you have created it?

As a user, I'd rather not go through the extra hassle of entering a code to access an eBook; as an author, I'm all for preventing unlawful distribution/posting of my work. Like you, I've found that doesn't really seem to happen all that often. But what if you're Stephen King?

It puts people on notice that you are claiming copyright; it provides a name in case they want to ask your permission to use or cite your work; it establishes evidence in case of a dispute. And if you think you might have a dispute and need to take it to court, it's a good idea to register your copyright claim as well (though again, it's not necessary - it only gives you additional statutory rights and protections).
