Same here. A file that can be copied infinite times without cost is not worth much. I put 2 years of work into a book that gets pirated all the time. I have no problem with it at all.

I think we would be better off reevaluating business models rather than suffering the effects of trying to preserve out-dated ones.

What sort of business model do you think would be effective?

What mediums do you two sell your books through?

Lots, but it's the PDFs that normally get copied.
