but isn't Lars saying Napster cannot use his copyrighted material without asking him? If I wrote a book could I say I do not give libraries permission to loan out my book without asking me? I could claim it was taking away book sales since the people who check the book out from the library would not be buying a copy from a bookstore.

So if I write a book, can I then say that I do not want it available for free in public libriaries?
