Answer:

False the payment of the copyright goes according to what the creator thinks is the best according to his work

The author pays of his own percentage, in most cases, his "literary agent", while bookstores and distributors are usually consignment instruments, that is, they return what they do not sell. On the other hand, publishers manage to lower their costs qualitatively if they print in large print runs or reissues where part of the work is already done.

They usually hear, on the part of the businessmen of the sector, ignited defenses of the inalienable rights of the author for his work when discussing for example what will happen with the appearance of electronic books, warning in some cases apocalyptically about the disappearance of books . If the case of the books is going to be the same as that of the record industries in the face of the appearance of mp3, it is true that digital books still absorb a small portion of the market. But the truth is that of the whole chain, the author on behalf of whom they speak is not only not the most benefited but the one who usually keeps the least part. For such copyright defenders, who would need enemies.
