Pirated copies of movies, compact discs and books have long plagued the producers of such goods. Unauthorized and illegal copies of movies, compact discs, and books cost the industry billions of dollars each year. Recently, the government has decided to redouble its efforts to curb the illegal distribution of pirated materials, although it has angered the publishing industry by not increasing its efforts to stop pirated books.
Which of the following, if true, most strongly supports the government's decision not to increase its efforts to stop pirated books?
A) No other industries are angered by the government's decision.
B) Books cost more to print and distribute than do movies or compact discs.
C) Much of the illegal activity the government is attempting to stop takes place overseas.
D) Because of the cost involved in printing books, most pirates convert books to digital formats stored on compact discs before selling them.
E) Book publishing brings in a smaller amount of revenue than do either the movie or music industry.
The OA is D.
What is wrong with option E? It seems correct too.

"Target Test Prep is the closest to the official version of the GMAT exam, about 99% accuracy in terms of the quality and quantity of information. The course has excellently created singular sets of focused lessons and tests for every possible topic that one could come across in the official GMAT exam."
"The TTP course maximizes the efficiency of the time you spend studying. It will take time and effort but I could almost guarantee that if you complete the course exactly as it is laid out you will get an amazing score. They also have a very responsive team willing to help with any questions you might have."
"TTP has two things that I think no other test prep company offers: A teaching approach that reinforces understanding and an attitude that will give you the mental preparedness needed to succeed on the test. TTP gives you a deep understanding of the concept you need to know while teaching you how to think."
