Comment Re:Baen Free Library (Score 1) 468

In fact, their license agreement for the CD's encourages you to make copies and give to people, and they've had no issue with them being placed online, because it's just taking their request, and extending it to the logical conclusion.
They figure that between the people that will read it, like it, and go out and buy it to support the author, and the people that start reading, and transition to paper books for a personal preference, they more than outweigh the people that would have bought a paper copy, but didn't once they found it online, since those are the same people that would have gotten them from a public library rather than buying it anyway...

Anyway, the site that has copies of all the Baen CD's, which Baen knows about and approves of is http://baencd.thefifthimperium.com/
They have expanded copies of the books hosted, and link to other sites that have the torrents on them.

Read, Enjoy, and then support the authors!
