     @DrPsyBuffy I can imagine, and, sadly, it's not just books, but other (probably all) media as well. I've read about some of their plans for video games, since that's my industry, and they are... not great.

     @Njord @DrPsyBuffy Even existing media is at risk (including physical media) so look for some movies, tv shows, and other titles to go out of print in the future and also look for companies to be more picky, selective, and thinking twice in which titles they release in order to not offend the powerful.

     Example: I can see a good number of Criterion Collection titles that would go OOP soon.
