*Wired* has this one on writer Glenn Fleishman who offered his book, Real World Adobe GoLive 6, as a free download. Instead of the few hundred downloads Fleishman expected, the book was downloaded about 10,000 times in just 36 hours. And because he's charged incrementally for bandwidth, Fleishman estimates he could be billed $15,000 at the end of the month -- possibly a lot more.

Wired also has a story about a science fiction writer who is glad his novel is being freely downloaded. http://www.wired.com/news/culture/ 0,1284,57152,00.html. "Down and Out in the Magic Kingdom, a science fiction tale that revolves around the employees of a dystopian Disney World sometime in the 22nd century, is writer Cory Doctorow's first published novel .... 'crossed the 10,000-download threshold at 8 a.m. this morning,' Doctorow said Thursday, 'which exceeds the initial print run for the book.'"
