Go for it! Competition is _always_ good! It forces people and companies to up their game. Customers are the ones who win in the end.

I was actually thinking of implementing something like Scribd (it's very simple with Adobe Flashpaper) but don't wanna get sued and deal with DMCA/lawyers. Scribd's full of pirated stuff... they must be getting a ton of DMCA takedowns.

That's the diff between Scribd and any potential competitors. They have laughed in the face of danger and fear. Many people find that hard to do.

You should go ahead and implement :D Laugh at the lawyers!

That's interesting - how could you use FlashPaper in a server setting? Is it available for Linux? Would it be sufficient to have a single user license to serve the web?
