  Directmedia Publishing - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Directmedia Publishing is a German publishing house created in January 1995 by Ralf Szymanski and Erwin Jurschitza as a publisher of digital media.
The emphasis of the publishing house's content lies within the field of digital libraries, particularly scientific collections of texts, and encyclopaedias.
Directmedia's sister enterprise, The Yorck Project (based in Yorck road, Berlin), specialises in the publication of CDs or DVDs with extensive picture collections including art, photography and historical illustrations.

 Publisher Encyclopedia Articles @ 209.68.55.254 ()   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-04)
Publishing is the industry concerned with the production of literature or information -- the activity of making information available for public view.
Book clubs are almost entirely direct-to-retail, and niche publishers pursue a mixed strategy to sell through all available outlets -— their output is insignificant to the major booksellers, so lost revenue is no threat to the traditional symbiotic relationships between the four activities of printing, publishing, distribution and retail.
The purpose of copyright is to protect the capital invested in the "work" by the publisher and the wish of the scholar is to have the work as widely distributed as possible.
