Of course, the benefit of printing more books goes down as you print more, to the point where printing let's say 10,000 books versus printing 20,000 books will save you pennies per copy, while requiring a much larger up front investment of capital
This topic is all so bizarrely entertaining. 😏 Hollywood could never be this creative, hehe. It's just so sad that Fischer isn't around any more to continue adding fuel to the fire. I don't know who to believe. I've never had a reason to doubt Evans or Labate; I'm still not sure about Trice.
Anyway, I read part of Labate's post. I'll read the rest late this controversy is going to provide more entertainment down the road. Woo Hoo!!!

You're more likely to meet Trice behind bars than in a bar.
