I guess I'm not saying this for the first time, but there were so many ways (fro publishers side) to handle the situation and make it a profitable one, but they chose the most stupid, conservative and annoying for the readers (from whom they want to collect incomes) way. From what I understand, they just want the world to rotate a few rounds back and the ebooks to disappear... Not much future for them with this way of thinking (IMO). Here is the place to say, that not all the publishers in Bulgaria stay behind this, and if the blogs of some prominent authors are to be trusted, none of the authors/translators (the actual copy right holders) were happy about the police action. |

Currently 7000 people in a group on facebook would disagree with you. And the group was grounded 2 days ago whith 7000 000 possible targets (approx. Bulgarian population). They were 4000 about 14 hours ago.
