Petert ..you are 100% right but publishers arent publising the content ofa book on FATB either, and they have the resources to go after any site that infringes on their property..Im assuming the average joe who puts together a 50-200 page document or a small 1-50 page documnet isnt and wont have the resources to protect anything, and or even find all infringements..It would destrooy this whole concept,..If FASTB actively goes after and protects the content then and only then would thiss be a viable idea ,, the way I see it,,is that it is impossible to see a legitimate revenue stream here.. The only value my site offers for example is the fact that teh information is time sensitive,,take that away and you have nothing. as a result, newsletters and website s with info are for the most part useless .. If downloads could be conrolled teh way the US post office controls the ditribution of stamps ,, maybe ..just maybe
