Amazon does seem to be acting more responsibly when it comes to establishing publishers' rights to a book offered for sale. We put up eighty titles from our catalogue last month and they spot-checked four of them asking us to fax or email the author contracts and other paperwork establishing our digital rights (one the release of ebook rights to us from a major publisher who had only contracted with the author for print and that still has the hardback and paperback version running at Amazon). We were happy to cover that little extra job purely and simply because it meant they were taking more care than they must have before the 1984 fiasco. Neil
