Harry Potter's pirated in Internet editions

posted: Jul 14, 2003 10:49:21 PM

Dave Winer has a link to the New York Times article, Harry Potter and the Internet Pirates, by Amy Harmon.

It is a good article and it makes pretty clear that online books are getting similar attention as online music. I don't see any viable alternative but for content publishers to change their whole concept about what exactly people are paying for when they buy writing or music, etc.

I am a big fan of O'Reilly's Safari Online books, and think it is one good example of an online book business.
