How was the CDL hurting working authors? A library bought the book, paying the publisher and the author. The IA scanned the book for digital lending, this digital copy could only be checked out by one person and only when the physical book was not also checked out.
I understand the court decided this wasn't okay. That aside, how was it hurting working authors?
