He looks more like Blake Griffin the cat

Uncanny resemblance aside, great pic

Congrats, you’re already doing better at password security than Target, Yahoo, and the US Government

It sounds like you’d prefer a world where only well-off people spend the time writing books, since making money from writing is obviously not cool

I recently listened to a decent podcast related to this very question (link)

Probably the wrong forum but I will say it’s… complicated. Physical books wear surprisingly fast, so popular books actually make money for publishers and authors, even by being in libraries.

I’m not of the opinion that DRM is good, but I do understand that writers have to make a living. But it’s the markets fault for not providing unobtrusive DRM or solving this economic problem in a way that doesn’t suck for end users.

I’m sorry to hear that friend. I’ve been there.

Having a string of better ones lately. It ebbs and flows. I hope you know that the good ones do come back, and I can tell you that they’re worth the bad ones. 100%
