Thanks, I haven't posted a great deal here, but often stop by to read.
I don't think it's rocket science though, I think if the whole publishing industry came crashing down, authors would still write and teaders would still read. There will be a way for authors to monetize it too, just without the current publishers business model.
When a technology comes along that turns an industry on its head, new businesses spring up to repkace the old ones that refuse to keep up.
Look at what happened to the camera companies when digital photography matured- either they climbed into bed with the electronics companies or they went under.
The publishing industry needs to learn from the music industry.
