A very fair comment, but it was just an analogy. Although, from the author's perspective, not that far off the mark in terms of who's gets to make, and be in control of, said "offer".

Just playing devil's advocate here for a moment...

I think you have to get past the "Is it benefical to them or not?" before you have the opportunity to make that decision of whether it is benifical to you or not, traditional or otherwise.

Anyway, the threads is about options, alternatives, and possibilities, not publisher bashing. Please accept my apologies if some of my sweeping remarks intended to get the ball rolling came over as a pot-shot at the "establishment".
