Okay. I read it. . .and it still makes little sense to me in the context of the reselling of books (although, I do greatly appreciate your posting the links, Xenophon
). If the whole case against file sharing is that the publisher and the author are not compensated, how does that arguement NOT apply to the resale of a book? I get that you can make multiple copies of something and then resell them, that's a no brainer, but it seems to me they need to do a complete rehab of the system to work for all situations.
