So in essence, every person would be able only to upload/change his OWN books...the other books can only be read off the screen...thats a good idea... What does everyone else think?

Mudd, can you elaborate on your post please....so you are saying that every contributor has its own folder along with username/pw with write capabilities...others can only VIEW that folder...is that correct? What about a quota--1 for 1?

I am wondering if I will be able to sign up just for few months, or is this a yearly "contract" type of thing?
