Answer: Hi Vincent, I'll be happy to answer your question. Blurb prints on demand, which means that we don't store copies of your book but, instead, we print a new copy every time we receive a new order. If you closed your Blurb account, your book file was permanently deleted from our servers. However, you may still have the original file on your computer, in which case you can upload it to a new Blurb account. If your account is still open but you can't remember your log in credentials, please reach out to our Customer Support team and they'll be happy to help: https://support.blurb.com/hc/en-us/requests/new Best, Blurb Team

Answer: Hi there! You can definitely make your book or magazine with Blurb and keep it private. When you upload a book to your Blurb account, by default it is private and only you can see it and buy it. We offer you the tools to publish and sell your book, but you don't have to sell it if you don't want to. Also, the copyright for your content remains yours. We are offering the authoring tools and the printing/binding of your masterpiece. The content, book, and all rights are yours. This is detailed in section 8 of our terms and conditions: http://www.blurb.com/terms. Section 6 of our End User License Agreement also clarifies that you retain all title/rights to your content as used in our books: http://www.blurb.com/software-eula I hope I've answered your questions but feel free to contact our Customer Support team if you want to know more: https://support.blurb.com/hc/en-us/requests/new Best, Blurb Team

Answer: You still own rights, and they do print on demand. When you say later, I am not sure if you mean when ordered or different. However, they are a rip off and treat sellers/authors like you are stupid. I have for 3 years been trying to publish with them and never got answers to my questions. I had to get an employee to contact them who had patients with their stupidity. I asked where else do they send it besides Amazon. Their response "Amazon and so forth." No Kidding! As far as ripoff, in order to make $1 in royalty for each book, the price has to be $61! My books are not textbooks, which it would be a great deal on. They are everyday self-help or educational and only 100+ pages. The same thing on Amazon, if I got there directly, is less than $10. On Amazon $10 is considered a high price for it. STAY AWAY! With over pricing and rude people, you will not make money even if you do get it published.
