It's interesting that while 8.1 is around 10%-ish, 8 is still about 5%. Considering 8.1 is a free update for registered copies of 8, how many of the un-updated copies of 8 are pirated versions?

The point is, none of the funding bodies wants to pay the extremely large sums required for *real* nutritional science, so researchers make do with lots of observational studies and a lot of data massaging that will get treated as SCIENCE by an uncritical and generally scientifically-illiterate press, and by not rocking the boat by coming out with articles that challenge the status quo, they're able to continue to receive funding.

I think you mean "Monetize everything"

Bad press.

Please bear in mind that HFCS (in mainstream use) is either 55% Fructose/42% Glucose (used mainly in drinks) or 42% Fructose/53% Glucose (typically used in food and baked goods). Table sugar consists of Sucrose, which when absorbed by the body breaks down into 50% Fructose/50% Glucose. Any difference between the two is a matter of marketing.

You fail to understand the power of "But we've always done it this way."

Your book looks interesting, and what better place to self-advertise than in a discussion about self-publishing? (Plus you might have a new reader, and customer, in a few more pages)

Arrive? Return, you mean.

They've already done something about these people. They've voted for them.

I believe they mean that only the version sold on gog.com will be DRM-free. The versions from other distributors will have some form of DRM.

It was great before it became a brand.

Or, judging by their recent behaviour, they'd simply lower the bar for approval even further so as to improve their throughput without the need to hire more staff.

The parent post has a good suggestion; the three stooges after a weekend bender.
