Tom,

I completely agree that Bernie should be free to do whatever he wishes 
with his intellectual property.

I did think, and I do take issue with your last argument.  In less than 
a minute, I found a Kindle edition of the complete works of Shakespeare 
for 99 cents and CD's of the complete symphonies of Beethoven for $28.

There's a trade-off satisfaction from income from fewer high-paying 
users and from having your work more widely known and used.  We all know 
that in a consumer-based world, the single-item price is *not* the index 
of value.  An individual has a right to choose either, but it's nice to 
know that both options are available.

Best regards,

Michael
