Oh yes, I'm well aware of that. The most popular fanfic, however, is probably Star Trek and Harry Potter, and that's not "legit". I remember when Paramount had a "purge" of all the Star Trek fan web sites about 5 years ago which were using copyrighted material - literally hundreds of them got shut down.
