I can understand that. But what about a contemporary Russian author? Would she care if someone scanned her book and offered it for download on the Internet?
No, but he wouldn't mind if his books were being scanned and being offered for download. If for no other reason than he realizes that people aren't typically going to read his books in full on their Winblows machine. Besides, as we all know from MR, teh internets (or the Internet if you're 7th monkey ) has not arrived in Russia yet.

I don't know why I've enjoyed issuing rebuttals to your posts, Akua, but all the misogyny aside, don't take it personally...
