Not only the researchers do not receive any compensation, they actually need to PAY the publishers hundreds of dollars minimum to get their work published.
Instead of paying the publishers, who contribute nothing to the work at all (remember they also charge us researchers hundreds of dollars just to get our work published), I'd rather donate the same $30 to sci-hub.
