*nod* That's why this sort of initiative feels like a missed chance and not a dangerous attack on fandom or somesuch. Fandom's a crazy anything-goes place, and that's how people want it to be, and most fans really don't care if whatever they're doing is company-approved or even legal. Even if Kindle Worlds becomes an industry standard and all other fic-writing is outlawed by evil warlocks, people will still be making stuff. You can't stop or take over fandom.
So while I'm not worried, I am disappointed that there are so many initiatives that might give a piece of the money pie to fans who'd like that sort of compensation, and that the initiatives just keep on sucking. (Come on, guys. Lots of fans would be happy to make a buck and give you more bucks too, just make a fair system.)
