If I'm not mistaken I believe Ralph sold all of the copies of this book that he had printed. If he wanted to sell more he should have printed more and I am sure they would have sold just as the first printing did. He is the one that put people in the position of wanting a scanned copy. So yes, I believe Ralph created this monster and then didn't like what he had created and chose to blame the community. It would be a whole different story if he was sitting on a stack of unsold books but that is not the reality. How can you complain about illegal copies when there are no legal copies to be had?
we have work at a new version and reprint of the book. this info was public. some days before the book-release spread the users a scanned version of the old book and damaged with that the new release.
i think i dont must say any more...
about to sell a original book, second hand. i dont see here the problem.
