"But it really comes down to the simple fact that the copyright holder has the right to choose when, where, and how a work is published. Not you or I."
THIS IS NOT IN DISPUTE. This is NOT being discussed by anyone EXCEPT for you. We are not talking about PUBLISHING the book and how they do that. We are talking about what I DO with MY PROPERTY in MY HOME. Nothing more.
They have NO RIGHTS in my home or against MY property otherwise its NOT my property and that would require FORCE to take from me.
Let me get this straight. I BUY a book from an author. I am the kind of person who WILL NOT buy 2 of something. I bought one that is enough. ARE YOU SERIOUSLY TELLING ME that its MY FAULT even partly for this authors decline because I do not buy other versions of there work ??? are you really being serious? you really think this is in ANYWAY my problem? Legally OR morally?
MAN what about all the criminals who NEVER bought one of that authors books!! holy crap!
"Well, like I've said, they can say you cannot make a photocopy of your book."
I disagree. For distribution YES for personal use NO none of there business morally or legally.
