Too often "free" is not appreciated as much as something that you have paid for (at least this is what I have noticed with myself). Human psychology, I guess. That's why pirating is not such a huge issue as it is often described.

I also find unconvincing the argument that I somehow prevent people from "reading God's Word" by charging for it because not everybody can afford it. If somebody can afford a Kindle, then $5 is not an obstacle, right?
And, of course, he can always download the KJV with no navigational aids free at Project Gutenberg, if that's all he wants.

I wonder if he expects to be paid when he works?
