Discovered this on r/entrepreneur after someone sent me the TL;DR of my own book and really dug where BlockShelf is going with this.

@alexisohanian Alexis, great find - what are your thoughts on the fact that these are indeed books people generally pay for?

@alexisohanian I remember when it used to be called Read Lead Grow :) Such a great site but wish the font was smaller. Also, check out Blinkist (www.blinkist.com)!

@raj_ventures I went around the country on the Without Their Permission tour and told some 80+ university students that if they couldn't afford my book, there were other ways to procure it... Yarrr.... that's how I feel about that. I'd rather see the ideas spread because I know (and even talk about it in WTP) that piracy is not a loss of revenue bc those people probably never would've paid anyway and are another potential fan to spread the word. Plus it'd be super ironic if the guy with a book called "Without Their Permission" was upset about that sort of thing....
