"Innovation led the way for great profits for writers, now writers can embrace this innovation and profit from it handsomely or try to fight a loosing battle much like the music industry."

You've clearly never entered into the real world of publishing or you'd never say these things: 'great profit for writers'...

There are few arts less profitable to enter into than writing.

Typical WebmasterWorld post. What gives artists control over their destinies is control over their copyrights. Oh, wait, I missed this, I see, when I publish a book, and it's copyrighted, and google puts up illegal digital representations of it on google books, I can sue them, and finally make some profit off my writing. I see, your point was subtle, easy to miss.
