We can only publish books that are out of copyright, or where the author has explicitly granted permission.

Ah makes sense
Right, right! I forgot you mentioned that in a previous post. My bad.
Lol well, still that list is worth a read.
Hopefully Nostr will become a publishing platform for copyrighted books someday! Zaps could make revenue sharing easier between authors and publishers, or it could be used for self-publishing.
Using zaps would be an awesome marketing move for both parties! Not sure how I would onboard them, though🤔. Those with max-normie mentality are difficult to sway.
That's why we're starting by building a client that needs Nostr to be what it is, but doesn't need to advertise itself by being Nostr. Introduce the new concept, let people adopt it, and we'll see what happens.
