I had some questions about the difference between usage and full rights. Usage has been described as borrowing the article and you can sell it multiple times. If I understand the Full Rights license correctly you cannot use it more than once. So if someone buys it at Full Rights price would the article be removed right away or do you have the responsibility of removing the article from the site yourself?

I look at selling Full Rights like selling a piece of real estate. It's sold, gone and the buyer can do anything they want to the property.
Selling Usage Rights is like renting out a property. The Buyer can use the article once with restrictions but they don't own it, I still own it. I can let other people use it for a fee (or free) or use it myself. I just can sell it for Full Rights because I've let go some rights already.

Hi jd - rather a crucial error in your last sentence - can instead of can't. LOL

I don't proof my forum posts. I leave the occasional error in to help everyone practice their proofreading skills. This question reminded me of a blog post I was planning to write on copyright and rights to articles. Thanks for the inspiration.
