Pete: Re: "If the teachers,lecturers and radio show hosts don't want their "content" material to be public, they
should keep their damned mouth zipped shut whether it be at lecture halls, on the radio or at public appearances!"

Unfortunately, I think there is the probability that this part of your post will come true at the end of this year. I believe that Brinker may be so upset at the selling of notes of his show for profit that he will no longer do the show starting next year. Hard to believe? I would not bet against it. Everyone has core beliefs and this is a core belief of Brinker's whether you agree with it or not. People act on their core beliefs and do things you might not expect because you do not share the same core beliefs or don't think it is a big deal.

And the great irony is that in selling summaries for profit, I think David Korn is unintentionally destroying the very thing most everyone enjoys -- Brinker and his show. What will Korn summarize when Brinker is gone? Nada. And while the summaries continue to be produced, Brinker may be less willing to share his market views on the show. I think this is already happening now.

And I also believe that the selling of summaries for profit may be eating away at Brinker personally. And when someone's happiness becomes an issue, they will make future decisions with the restoration of their happiness in mind.

Brinker does not need a dime from his radio show. He does it because he enjoys it. If he does not enjoy it, he will not do it any longer. It is that simple. I believe this summary thing has seriously tipped the scales in his mind toward leaving the show for good.

machine guns in hand breaking down my door to confiscate my precious notes of each weekend's Moneytalk programs to enforce a famous radio network's all encompassing
perception of the meaning of copyright laws. Well, I'm going to lock them up in my safe deposit box - I refuse to give in!"

Your notes are fine. It is the selling of your notes for profit to others that is the issue.
