Everybody has to eat. If spreading information means I can't afford to eat, I'll stop writing books. It's as simple as that.

Ironically publishers can't bring your content much more people than pirates.

The same would happen if I did everything myself. Within days of self-publishing a eBook, it would be on a pirate site. At least with a publisher, legal copies do get sold, and I do get a return on the time invested, even though it's not as much as I would like. David Powers
