Thank you for the excellent points you made below. I would have to say that it's mighty greedy for people to rip the books from PG, burn them to CD and DVD, and then go selling them on Ebay, thier website, etc It's just plain rude for people to walk all over the hard work Project Gutenberg does and then complain when it asks for a small token in return.
Along these lines, would be be sufficient to take a CD/DVD of PG, roll through each of the works in an automated fashion, convert them to a format that PG does not currently support, and sell THAT for a fee? (Where the fee covers the time to convert to the other format(s) as well as for distribution of the media itself, etc.) I've been asked several times by my user community to provide something very similar, but I would also like to make it VERY OBVIOUS that the works are from the PG project. As a long-time Free Software author and community contributor, I'm very well-aware of licensing, copyright, trademarks and their common misuse. d.
