Fans can be some of the most self-sentered, corporate bashing, whining little children in the world.
1) Though I don't see any way TOR get's more money out of this, I don't really care if they do. They are a business, if they don't make smart money choices, they cease to exist. If the cease to exist, we don't get to read their books (including WoT). So, if this is a way that they can make more $, GOOD FOR THEM!!!!!!!!!!!
2) For the fools who think they should be able to edit this in 6 months.... that's what they did with ToM and look how that turned out. And Harriet took MONTHS to recover from that. Doing it again COULD KILL HER!!! So, if she want's to take her time about it... be thankful she is doing it at all. And doing what they are doing (writing for RJ) is far harder then writing for yourself, so it well take more effort to Edit.
3) For those who have the audacity to complain that BS is doing some of his own work, He was supposed to have released MANY books by now, which he has set aside to do WoT. If he does a few FAR SMALLER works.... get over it! He has also said that he needs to clean his pallet sometimes and working on a short-storie/novella/stand-alone-novel is how he does that. If they end up sellable... good for him.
4) I would love for this book to be published tomorrow, I will be happy when it's comes out, no matter HOW far back they push it. If Harriet decides to push it out till November 2015, I would be VERY annoyed; but I would still wait in lines to read it, and thank her on my knees for doing it at all!
