I disagree. If you translate something that is in copyright you have to pay a royalty. If you translate something that is out of copyright people have a choice. Pay you for your translation or get the original work and translate it themselves.
A translation takes time and work. Many people are willing to pay for that. If you're not, then don't.
Isn't it "fair" that the translator gets compensated for their work?
