What writers, artists and other contributors post on the Newshare Syndicate WWW server depends entirely upon the marketing and financial objectives of the writer or contributor
For the a one-time, $25 signup fee a Contributing Member is entitled to a year of 20 kilobytes of information loaded once (additional loadings extra), as well as listing in directory of Contrbuting Members (as they are called) sorted by: a) Name; b) Location and c) Area(s) of interest/expertise.
Loading or reloading additional content will cost extra.
After the first year, an annual membership fee
for an amount to be determined will be requested.
DIGESTS OR ACTUAL CONTENT: A PROVIDER'S CHOICE
Some writers may post a series of digests of work they have for sale.
Others may post complete articles with a clear copyright notice that they
are for "browsing only." Others might post timely articles as they are
completed. Once our Token Validation Service server software is in place
we will be able to track access to such content
and restrict it to Newshare members or the public, as the writer
requires.
Eventually, we expect that there will be many Newshare Publishing Members,
who will use our TVS software on their own host servers. This will make
it possible not only to track access but also to bill it to individual
users at remote locations who are on Newshare-enabled machines. At this
point we will offer this ability to "sell" content on a single user basis
to our Contributing Members -- with an appropriate commission on the
transaction payable to the Newshare(SM) Syndicate.
NEGOTIATE DIRECTLY; OR ASK NEWSHARE TO HANDLE TALKS
A writer may choose to permit Newshare to negotiate rights on his/her
behalf when content users request publication, reposting or other
distribution rights beyond a single browse. Or the writer may choose to
simply attach a notice to his/her content advising that use for other than
browsing requires their permission and purchase (via an E-MAIL address).
YOU RETAIN YOUR COPYRIGHT
It is our intention to be a BROKER of content, not an OWNER, in the main.
It is possible that in some topic areas, Newshare Corp. itself will act as
a Publishing Members of the Newshare Syndicate, and so may "own" some
content of its own. So individual writers are buying from us a marketing
and distribution service for their copyrighted content. They are not
selling copyright to us and we have no intention of making it available to
anyone other than for non-archival browsing purposes.
