I love this too. Best quote: “That’s absolutely true, of course, providing you’re a professional marketer. Seth Godin is a professional marketer and as such has built up a fan base of people who will buy – as he puts it – “five or ten copies at a time and distribute them to friends and co-workers”. Go Seth! (Also: worst secret Santa EVER).”

i really like this post by paul carr, not because it defends publishers, but because it’s so snarky. i could rename the post “nsfw: stfu & stfd.”
