i think teasers should be clearly identified. or banned outright, if you were to ask me. but if michael says it's ok, then i'd have to accept it, because nobody knows p.g. policy better than the man who invented the thing. there are thousands of free e-books over at smashwords and feedbooks. will p.g. accept those complete books, too? or is this only a "by invitation" offer made available to a few? i'm more concerned about the announcement by overdrive. is p.g. being paid for that usage? because overdrive certainly is. also, in the past, several e-book producers have stated publicly that they are giving a percentage of their income to project gutenberg, including eucalyptus. have those programmers done so? -bowerbird
