"ALCS does a brilliant job for writers, a job that we can't possibly do on our own. Writers, like chemists or farmers, need to earn money from their work, which means it should never be reproduced without payment -- but how on earth do we ensure that in the mind-boggling modern electronic world? ALCS keeps abreast of the massive scale and complexity of modern copyright issues and is always out there looking after our interests and sending us regular cheques for the money they recover. Plus, they are clear, friendly and helpful to deal with. We owe them a big debt."
