re: Milo's Book Has Been Canceled

I said that Milo's book is in high demand based on preorders. The cancelling of the book is a disruption of the free market as there is now a disruption in the supply that has nothing to do with organic supply and demand.

Disruption of the free market? The publisher is under no obligation to publish anything. This has nothing to do with supply or demand. This isn't an economics discussion. It's simply a business decision on the part of the publisher.

If you want to make it an economics discussion: If the demand is high enough, market will work itself out and another publisher will pick up the book. If no one touches the book then that's the market's way of saying that the green wasn't worth the potential for negative pub.
