IMO, if you think of your words as a product then that is your first problem.
We do not think of ourselves as stealing from you when we pirate your works, we are simply searching for a better understanding of the human condition. Perhaps we can find this understanding in your words, perhaps not. Only by reading can we know whether or not your words have any value, we cannot allow you to make this judgement beforehand for us. Well we could, but we would be doing ourselves a disservice I think.
