What your opinion on PDF File about Pool Book Old or New, Should they be listed?

Some Azers' are against posting PDF File ... Some are for it. What are your opinion?

I got a beat up Eddie Robin 3C Book ... I'm thinking about to make into a PDF File
 
The Book was bought from from Eddie Robin .... Supposed the last one .. other than his personal book

Well he is alive and well, and has been actively selling his 2 or 3 books on ebay for the past 20 years. You should ask him if he his ok with his book in pdf format on AZ. If yes, then go for it.

What are you talking about? If you scan a book and post it online, it's stealing, plain and simple. It does not matter what the book sells for, either original retail, or current price.

I'll say I have no trouble stealing a movie on bittorrent to watch from my couch. But for pool, I'd like to support the sport, and it's a close community. I guess we all have our own ethics. Mine are certainly not perfect! Just being honest.
 
It's also a waste of effort. Hardly anyone will even read a book anymore, let alone a pdf of a pool book. I've had Eddies one pocket books for 25 some years, maybe read half of them once, and never touched them again. I doubt there is much demand for reading. We are in a 60 second shorts youtube world now.
 
I like having the books on the computer with the audio reader.

I struggled to read when young, it helps to see it enlarged, animated and with audio.

In pool you don't have to be good at reading, only shooting. I like shooting.

What would you need to share, describe the passage.

Can you paraphrase or plagiarize?

I'm 99.8% sure Eddie Robin is Dead as Disco. No One has heard from him or seen him in over 2 years. I know the people that were the closest to him for the last 4-5 years.

Really, I had no idea. Thanks. I bought his book at retail in the late 90's, and a few more from him on his ebay account over the years.

Are you messing with us? What's you end goal? Are you going to scan a book with 200 pages and post it somewhere, legal or not? For what purpose? Its a pure waste of your time, even if it was legal.
