Was this some optional thing or breach of contract?
Whichever, they’re adults and know the consequences.
It’s when the legal system looks at a contract that says to do something and pay someone and throws it out because the system is rigged where the problem is. Business assholes being assholes is common place
Good question. Nothing stated about the contract. But definitely time to boycott this company.
Ullstein-Verlag has not renewed the rights which were fading out. However, a successor has already been found for the German edition. The Ullstein edition has already sold very well. I think the new edition will also sell well thanks to the Streisand effect.
Thank you so much for sharing this information.
