Oh, really? So, publishers are 100 percent focused on marketing, therefore zero percent on piracy, consequently presumably DRM and geo-restrictions are dreamt up by authors, or is it the fairies?
Had you read my post (the one you quoted!) and you'd have seen that I already receive e-mails from at least one publisher, no I don't need more junk mail, and yes I was already aware of the forum dedicated to freebies and promos - which by the way mostly seems to be aimed at Kindle owners - thank you.
Had you bothered to read my posts you'd know that I have not suggested publishers ignore pirates. Presumably you just don't get it, or you're playing games, either way I can't be bothered to repeat what I've already written. This is just too tedious and I'm bored by it.
I'm not at all persuaded by your arguments, so the publisher(s) that you represent - if that's the case - will just have to continue doing without my business. When I buy e-books, it'll be from sources such as BeWrite Books, O'Reilly Books, Baen Books, Smashwords, and so on. |
Whatever, dude. You really did give the impression that you thought publishers were focused on piracy to the exclusion of anything else. You aren't persuaded by my arguments, fine- all I was arguing was that publishers had the right and the duty to take action against pirates, along with marketing and all the other things they do. Sorry if it bored you to tedium.
If you want to join with WW and Kenny C in their joint delusion that I'm working for the publishers, feel free-my guess is its not the only delusion rattling around in your head
