I dont see a difference.. If i publish a book, i wan't it read in a certain way , its art , it would be like reproducing andy warhol on pabst beer labels..

Can i "index" my monthly issue of playboy ? I think not...

As i said initially you didnt read far enough , its an opt-out approach meaning publishers/authors have no choice unless they contact google..

Would it be all right for me to reproduce playboy/hustler/time magazine/people etc every month, for "indexing" ..

Google themself write; "..direct potential buyers to your website, provide ongoing reports about user interest in your books, and your books will also earn revenue from contextual advertising"
So yahoo is "cheap propoganda" then you quote google writing propoganda for itself.. ?.

I posted the yahoo link for a reason , this is gfy , if i had posted 50 indy news links nobody would have read past the first line.
