 @Fu that's hilarious. You are preferred by the market since you only need to cover publishing costs, while the author has to cover publishing costs and the pay for actually writing the book. So you have more resources due to stealing their book, so you can get the same thing out of the door cheaper and/or better, so you win every time unless you somehow manage to fuck that up anyway. To work, the market requires some enforcement of property. This includes intellectual property. Period. |
you don't have to be a drugs. This is a fairly standard position. IF they claimed they wrote it, or if they claimed you approved it, that would be fraud and should be processed as such. But if I were to present "@delric's book presented by @Fu" that is a morally legitimate move. If I happen to be better at publishing, marketing, etc. and the market prefers my version so be it. However historically being first to market is the most important point in determining which is preferred by the market.
