This is crazy when you think that if you upload a YT video with 10 seconds of a Beatles song in it, the YT copyright engine will be on you in minutes, "demonetizing" your vid. YT can spot copyrighted audio and punish it automatically, while Amazon can't recognize a whole book including covers as a violation.
- saurik 4y agoYou are legally allowed to buy a book and resell it. If you look, many of the legitimate offers for books on Amazon that are "from the long tail" of content are coming the inventory of small book stores, both used and new. The issue is not that third parties are selling a book at all but that the book they are shipping is a third-party low-quality re-print of the book in question instead of an official copy, something you wouldn't know until you receive the book.
