Your argument makes no sense though. If people started charging for their good fic, all you would have left is badfic. You can find a TON of good free fanart too.

You know what I do with free good fanart? I leave a comment, if it's posted in a place that allows comments, add it to my favourites list, and sometimes go back and admire it. If that artist suddenly decided to take it down, I would have no access to it.

Fanart I have paid for? I damn well expect to get a solid copy, on good-quality material, that I will keep being able to look at even if the artist deletes the digital version online.

My two felties are sitting over on a bookcase just across the room from my computer. I can go over there, take them out of their display canisters and play with them whenever I want. That's what I paid $250 for - having them here, to handle, instead of just looking at pictures on DeviantArt.

If a free fan is online, I do not feel beholden to download it if I want to read it. I would only pay for it if the writer printed it, bound it, and made a nice solid book out of it and mailed that book to me. If they are merely demanding to be paid so I can read it online, I don't want to read it.

That's what I think they are talking about...actually buying the book.
