At the risk of taking the side of the greedy publishers, I still wonder
where enough profits will exist to cover costs of updates and writing new
books if everyone wants free books. I wrote a book that I think is good. I
am still trying to find an agent to go the publisher route because it would
be useful to get some payback. Sure I can put it on the web for free, and
maybe I will end up doing that, but where do costs get covered? Textbooks
require time, thought, =costs. Somebody has to pay. If it is the
universities, then it comes out of federal grants and/or tuition = taxes
and students covering costs anyway.
So I don't get the views being expressed here.
