The arguments that the quality of literature will suffer and authors will just not produce is something the book publishers would love you to believe... don't!

It's only the publishing houses' bottom line that would suffer.

The same argument has been used (falsely) by the music industry to protect their revenue stream for a while now and there is absolutely no evidence that the world's musicians have lost their muse..

Writers just love their material to be read... and that's the end of it. Will they produce less quality work? No. Will they only write trite rubbish? No.
