Hi Folks:
I'm not sure what sub forum this belongs on so I stuck it here. Tonight as I was getting ready to purchase some more Logos books to add to my collection that numbers thousands, I have a few things that bother me.
1. Am I correct that the books we have purchased are permanent, that is Logos or the publishers cannot break the license? The reason I ask is that if our country continues to slide downward, is it possible that some of the books I have in my collection could be 'banned' as hate speech and removed from my collections (as an example). Has Faithlife commented on that anywhere?
2. If a publisher decided to go in and revise its books to change things to what I would consider to be a less biblical position, I assume Logos would not have to update its books? Example: recently Eerdmans is a publisher that I have a lot of books with. They made some statements that seem to put traditional biblical beliefs on several issues in a bad light. If (just as an example) they decided to remove certain books from sale, we would get to keep our books right?
3. I purchased every new version of Bibleworks that came out for many years. I had hundreds of books also in my Wordsearch software and they are both gone now. Has Faithlife written or discussed anywhere what might happen to our licenses/software if they were ever to go out of business? (I've bought enough through them to keep them in business for a while lol but it is a worry).
I sometimes find myself purchasing a book I really like on Logos and also a hard copy that I can always have. I know we should never 'put all our eggs in one basket' but has Logos/Faithlife ever discussed any of these issues? I'm not interested in arguing politics. If you have any links or can point me to where I can find information on these questions (if available) I'd really appreciate it.
Thanks, Matthew
