Chris Anderson here again: to the commenters who don't like the free Scribd version, I'll repeat: it's also available for free in lots of other versions, from Kindle (coming next week) to Google Books audiobooks in all formats, including downloadable MP3 (no DRM). See my blog at longtail.com for links to them. The only thing you can't do is download a PDF and print it out. This is a book about gratis, not libre. Those who keep asking why we haven't licensed it under Creative Commons are missing the point. Perhaps if they actually read the book, rather than guessing at the thesis, they'd have a clearer understanding of what we're doing here. Fortunately, it couldn't be easier to do that. Just click the arrows above!

Chris Anderson here. Some clarifications for those who don't find this version sufficiently free. First, it's available for free in many other forms: full downloadable audiobook (http://www.wired.com/techbiz/it/magaz..., Google Books screen view (much like this) and, coming next week, downloadable Kindle and other ebook readers. It is free as in beer, not free as in speech (no copyright). Those who have read the book will understand that is exactly what the book is about. Other people have written books about libre, but my book is about gratis. I practice what I preach. The rights to the text editions of the book are owned by Hyperion, my publisher, and they have generously allowed the book to be free in these many ways, but all for limited time windows (ranging from a week to a month). The audiobook rights are my own, and I have chosen to make it free forever.
