The source is properly and clearly identified and this is the online publishing world. A grand part of everything you read online is based on this very mechanism. The whole blogging world wouldn’t exist without it.

If I’d tell you how many articles of aB.com got copied, posted, altered, reproduced, republished … I don’t bother nor do I care. On the contrary. By putting it online I implicitly made the material available for free. There you go.

Publishing restricted/paid access material though, now that’s a taboo.

And to be honest with you, since the creation of aB.com this site hasn’t made a single dollar with Amazon ads. With Google’s AdSense yes, but not Amazon. Understand the provided links as an altruistic service.
