Sharing your manga, or anything for that matter, is up to you, once you've paid for it. For them to limit your freedom in such a way is illegal imo. Honestly though, it's just because the government is full of old farts that barely know what the internet is, so most of the laws are out dated/ poorly written anyway.
No its not. Not if its licensed. And this stuff is licensed. Ever tried to "share" a movie on the internet? No? See what happens. OM, and other scanlation sites share what is effectively pirated manga. Its the same as Limewire really.
They aren't getting any more from this as far as I'm aware, because as someone else said, they are paid by the page, not the number of sales. So, basically they're forcing us to give the publishers money, who didn't do a thing to make the manga. (And if they only did it for money, then they don't do it because it's fun. That's the point.)
Maybe so, but they get more money for Tankoban sales. Becuase they're payed some sort of percentage. As for the publishers not doing anything BS. In america maybe. But considering how Manga is gathered together inn collections like Weekly Shonen Jump, the publishers are busting their butts almost as much as the actual artists.
