Let us (Authors) not forget to Read the Contract terms.
How many of us have (books from) Baen CD's in our Library?
I remember hearing of an unhappy Author complaining about all their work being given away.
(If you read the CD License terms, you can only make and give a Full copy of the CD). The contract had Promotion terms.
My paper Library had many of those titles already, but a few I found there resulted in SALES of that Authors work. Free / cheap samples do work to get something read that might otherwise be passed by.
