A REQUEST FOR COMMENTS

As most of you know many of the ezines that have emerged in the sf/f/h market also include an annual print issue.  Many though not all contracts for sale of prose and poetry cover two things; initial right to use the piece in the issue.  It frequently includes non-exclusieve reprint anthology right.  This is my question to you folks;  do you think that your poem appears ( and is paid for ) in the ezine.  Now they want to reprint the poem for free in the annual print issue.  What would you decide.  Say yes and let them to use it or say no and refuse to have the poem appear in the annual print issue.  What would you do and why ?
