I'm well aware that many people (my wife, the editor, included) don't *want* to read stuff onscreen, yeah, I know, it's a strange concept, but there y'go, so we're (probably) always going to produce print in some degree, that's ok. > Or are you going to try to make it more that you > can look at this and you can't?

The thing that I first thought of when this came up was that, if/when we go belly up, or at least stop, this solution leaves all those people with nothing. At least the people with paper will still have something. So if we deliver them files, they'll always have what they paid for regardless of what we do. In fact I found an Australian site that came up with this solution, with security. They were selling space I think, you could put your book/publication/whatever, up there and they take care of everything. Then there's Charlie's point. I agree at lot with that too. I don't like the drift towards everything being on the web and going back towards dumb terminals on your desk. It's the big brother solution, "they" get to keep control... hmmmmm. > I am just trying to come up with ideas in a brain storm session. Thanks! It's very much appreciated.
