Publishing’s Virtue: On the whole, book publishers are a decent lot.

Date: June 1, 2012
Author: Cory Doctorow
QUOTE: without quality, price, convenience, or the threat of punishment, how can publishers convince people to do the right thing and buy? Basically, with an appeal to decency: you should buy our goods because it’s the right thing to do....Even publishers owned by giant corporations deal with their writers on industry-standard terms that really do see to it that the money a customer hands over for a product finds its way into the creator’s bank account.
