It was after the third hour that Phoenix started to drop fast in the first match. I don't think Phoenix is gonna hang on here.


Eh, the difference is that he was facing a character who has a really strong Euro vote. Phoenix is killing Ike in Europe right now.

He's losing 30 votes an update

You know, Nintendo icons would do well on any site. But Cloud and Sephiroth being gods? That was us. We've given up our identity as a site, and this boring final is the punishment we deserve. Link wins with 65%

Or maybe we should stop voting for characters who died 20 years ago? Just a thought.

yes, there will be an optimal number of "readers per copy" that takes into account a lot of variables, but it's much more complex than what you're describing

What do you mean "an optimal number of readers per copy". That optimal number, for the author, is always one. And it should always be one, out of fairness to the author.

When a person reads a book, they get enjoyment and entertainment out of it. They are willing to pay for it. The money that they pay for it belongs to the person, and should go to the person, who spent the time and had the talent to create the book. Period. No reasonable person could argue otherwise.

but it's not really right or wrong, it's just pro-corporation and anti-consumer. (but really, only relatively.)

Are you sure about that? If a single book is bought and resold a million times, you can have a million people who paid for and enjoyed the book, and the author only gets $5. Could a reasonable person argue in favor of such a policy? No, a reasonable person could not.

The author already profited from the initial sale, so there's no reason why the person who bought it shouldn't profit as well.

Basically this.

If a million people read a $5 book, and the first person to read it sells it to the next, and so on, then the author receives $5 for a million books read. You think that's fair?


No, only one book was still read

A million people read it, paid for it, and enjoyed it.

What happens if a person buys a car for $20k then sells it down the road for $100k when it becomes a collectible? Why isn't the car company getting that extra $80k?

When a car company sells a car, they receive money in exchange for a person being granted a certain amount of transportation (i.e., the car can transport a person, say 200k miles). They didn't sell the car as a collectible, so they don't have a claim to its value as a collectible.

Zeus posted...
you're not buying a book for $5 and most people aren't able to sell a used book for $5 -- hell, you're going to be damn near giving the book away most of the time (mostly likely to a thrift store which will sell the book for a buck).

https://amzn.to/2LYNoWM

When comparing used vs new prices, don't forget to factor in the cost of shipping.

Zeus posted...
Shouldn't you be complaining about lending books?

Yes, that shouldn't be allowed either (without the author's permission).

And shouldn't 90% of your ire be directed at libraries and schools which let people use books for free?
