In my experience, only the minority of professors reply to such emails. Perhaps you've had better luck than I.

It isn't just professors. It's people mentioned in the rsx paper. Usually masters students.

I have never denied someone who has emailed me a free copy of the literature I've been cited in. Nor have any of my colleagues. We don't get paid when people buy it, so fuck em.
