re: #203 Charles

Cognito harbors an odd conviction that there is something immoral or unethical about me writing about things that interest me, and linking to Amazon so people can buy stuff if it sounds interesting to them too. So he drops little snarky comments like that.

What really irks him is the 6% cut I get on sales referred through LGF, via the Amazon Associates program which is, of course, explicitly designed for just this purpose.

People don’t pay any more for the Amazon items, they always have the best deals or close to it, and the small referral fees help keep LGF running. There’s nothing unethical about these posts.

Capitalist! The horror of it, entering in a contract that makes you money!
