I would assert that normal spoiler rules apply, the discussion will just start a little earlier. The spoiler rules are written in the form 'until {period} after first US publication', aren't they? > > For those who are not familiar with Webscriptions, their FAQ is at > > http://www.baen.com/WS_FAQ.htm. > > Which doesn't explain single book purchases very well. It's focused on the webscriptions explanation - the individual book purchase evolved as an add-on over time. I can easily believe that it hasn't made it into the FAQ yet.

They're working on overhaul of the whole site, we can hope that the FAQ gets a serious update at the same time. -- Scott Raun sraun at fireopal.org
