Reply to The Internet Archive is defending its digital library in court today by OutlandishnessOk2452
I think I’m of the unpopular opinion that it should be going back to the 1:1 or at maximum 1:3 rather than 1:N book downloads. They’re a business, and yes they do have to make money even if they already have a lot.
Limiting the number of downloads would be helpful for the individual authors, they need to make money too or they will have done everything for nothing potentially. If a person really wants a book, try going to the physical library, use Libby or just torrent it. There is also Project Gutenberg on the internet, www.gutenberg.org

Reply to comment by rev_daydreamr in [OC] The average living space in Germany was around 92m² (990 sq ft) in 2021 by 23degrees_io
I moved a lot I’d say growing up to when I was about 21, from a trailer park to apartments and homes, total 6 times. Apartments were generally 900-1100 sqft, trailer if I had to guess was 750 sqft, first house 1400 sqft and my current single family home is 1650.
