What if the book has been published in paper form? The book is public as long as you pay for it.

Since internet isn't free, you're still paying for content. At what point are you paying "enough" that the information isn't public anymore?

Are you saying no one should monetize their content using ads unless they're willing to allow anyone else to do that as well?

It is worth pointing out just how pissed off Google engineers were publicly when they felt Bing was copying their search results.
