Sort of...other content providers have complained about their stuff showing up on sdn unabridged. Content drives traffic, and traffic is a source of income. If people can read the whole thing here, they don't need to visit the site that actually provided the content. Less traffic = less $ and people get cranky about that.

I respect that, thanks.
