I really have nothing important to add to this issue, but there is something else that's caught my interest.
I've noticed more and more lately that fanfic writers have been selling their "books" on cafepress. They all claim they aren't profiting from the venture, and that the money only goes into the actual printing process, but ... it seems fishy to me. Fanfic is something I enjoy, as long as the writers aren't profiting from any of it. "Publishing" via cafepress crosses that line. Besides the fact that it is supremely illegal/immoral, it also takes advantage of the reader.
It's like when people put "paypal" links on their fanfic pages. For most writers/readers, fanfic is a hobby or a passion. Then you get theses asses who think they can turn some sort of profit off their trash.
It's something you should look into, this cafepress BS.
