- Nice to see a lens that brings some important issues into the open for discussion, of primary concern to myself, as I am nearing the release of my first ebook, was the link to Baen Free Library as it mimics part of my arguments for liberalization and diversification of titles as detailed here

- I just visited Noadi's art and you definitely are an artist. You have some beautiful pieces. I think our sponsors here at Squidoo should buy your squid sculpture for one off their offices! Thanks for the rapid reply.

- Well 90% of the stuff I've listed is in the public domain, meaning it's copyright has expired all the rest like the Baen Free Library have been released with the consent of the authors for free. I'm an artist, I understand worries about copyright so I'd never encourage downloading a book that the author doesn't want released for free.
