Again, your books and whatever will have value providing you abide by the Law of Automation.

In a nutshell, you will get no protection for using virtual media because there is no reason you could not have released that book in physical form.

The Law of Automation allows for virtual media, it just doesn't allow virtual products to be chargeable, this is why the likes of Apple can no longer do what they used to do, and this is why we have hundreds of thousands of new bookstores, video shops, and record stores.  If you want to release your book in virtual form, by all means do so, but if you charge for it in virtual form, you will be prosecuted.  The reason you will be prosecuted is because releasing the product in virtual form means that you avoided paying for physical book manufacture, a printer, a distributor, etc, and therefore avoided a fair contibution to the economy.

The little money it cost you went to Apple, and none of it went to our economy.

By following the Law of Automation, it's not only our economy that is protected, but your own income as well.  You would earn more from your physical product than you would from a virtual one, for two reasons:

1 - I will prosecute you for selling a virtual copy.
2 - If you're not wanting an income from it, you were free all along to offer it for free in virtual form.

You are free to do pretty much whatever you like with virtual products, as long as there is no charge for it.  If you want to make money, then as a citizen of England you would be forced into the real world of tangible goods that have real value.  Corrupt mega-corps from America are no longer sapping-up the economy over here, and that's the way it's going to stay.

Any more questions from the press?
I'll be in the chip shop if you need me, I could murder a Fish and Chips right now :-)
