You may want to check if you can get Windows for free from the University. Depending on their Microsoft license, they may allow you to install it for academic use.
There are no standards when it comes to pirated books. Some of the books are DIY-scans, and some are purchased eBooks with the DRM removed. It all depends on if the publisher has made an electronic version and if someone is willing to part with money and time to make it available. DIY-scans can range from a bad photocopy that looks like a CAPTCHA test to a perfect scan run through high-end OCR software that is searchable and crystal clear. You basically get what you pay for.
You basically have to treat your VMs like they are each individual servers and back them up accordingly. I highly recommend Symantec Backup Exec System Recovery Server Edition.

I could tell you, but then you'd know.

There are no discounts. The students are downloading illegal copies of books.
And at $299, it's also a great deal.
It works for me. But I got it when it used to be called LiveState. Maybe it got messed up when they changed the name.

It works with any type of server but fits better in the virtualization environment.
