if i got it right you got the issue shipped to your rl address
so, if i put a thread or something like that asking to buy it what guarantee do i have that ill get it?
i could hold the money till it gets here but then...
what guarantee will the seller have??
besides.... its kinda old...
id love to read it and all... but i dont plan to pay for an old magazine
would you pay 1USD for a year old newspaper?
i was wondering if anyone had scans of it or something like that
^^

So you propose a violation of the Copyright?


Just joking, I have no idea at all.

Probably not, as 711 would have it removed in about two seconds.


And for your information my copy says "Spring 2006" and later "© 2006".

Edit:

For works made for hire, and for anonymous and pseudonymous works (unless the author’s identity is revealed in Copyright Office records), the duration of copyright will be 95 years from publication or 120 years from creation, whichever is shorter.

Edit2: It seems the above is only for the US. However generally it's x years after the death of the author.

Yes, the author of whatever owns the piece from when it was made and on forward. That's why Elvis Presley still is the artist that makes most money per year.... Only free music is Mozart and othe rold stuff. I think it say 75 years or something in the law book.

But today's people thinks everuthing is or should be for free, but that's another discussion

Regarding it's OK to copy and give credit. IU have the right to copy PIECES" not a whole book.

I did find this place

Kind of explains why there never where a no2. MA was never involved, it was a company that made it for them and there where probably to less sold IRL.

Quote from the site:

At 150 PED (plus 50 PED p+p worldwide) for a single issue, The Entropian is available to pre-order now via the online auction system inside the Entropia Universe, as a straight buy-out. Discounts are available for those wishing to take out a yearly subscription – 560 PED (plus 200 PED p+p worldwide).

Looks like no one did pay for the yearly subscription...
