Comment It's a Trap! (Score 1) 502

Seems to me like they're trying to use the incentive of "free" to just get a better grip on Internet regulation. I'd rather keep paying for Internet than allow them to dictate what I'm allowed to view online. And while it starts out as just a "smut free" service, what's to stop them from branching out restrictions after that?

In the case of books I wouldn't be surprised to see it work like that since there is a notable difference between electronic text and reading out of a book; but for a medium where the CC version and the paid version are essentially the same (ex: music... at least in the case of mp3) I don't see it working as idealistically as that. But I guess that is why you don't see it much in those types of media.

Not to mention you are likely to have higher comprehension reading from the printed version than from the e-reader. And it's easier on the eyes. Although, I can't say I find searching through the dollar bin of used books pleasurable, especially when most of the time there is a reason they're so cheap.
