[WEB4LIB] FW: Questia: who is behind it?

[Gimon, Charles A]

I find it amusing that they're marketing this service to a generation of
students who've grown up on pirated music, software and porn. If the service
does become popular among students, there will be Questia password sharing
and cracking sites popping up like mushrooms.

For my personal use, the service looks fabulous. I have rather obscure
interests (not related to my job) that aren't well served by institutions in
my area; getting info through Questia looks much more attractive than making
field trips to Cornell, or Australia. (I would, of course, purchase an
account legitimately...)
