It would be really great if it did not have this:
"By distributing or disseminating Uploader Submissions through the Issuu Service, you hereby grant to Issuu a worldwide, non-exclusive, transferable, assignable, fully paid-up, royalty-free, license to host, transfer, display, perform, reproduce, distribute, and otherwise exploit your Uploader Submissions, in any media forms or formats, and through any media channels, now known or hereafter devised, including without limitation, RSS feeds, embeddable functionality, and syndication arrangements in order to distribute, promote or advertise your Uploader Submissions through the Issuu Service."
My scientific articles will remain MY articles.

I've actually just uploaded a few articles to Issuu. I also saw the legal stuff and thought twice about the paragraph mentioned above.
The thing that convinced med however was that you cannot download from Issuu (unlike most other of these doc-sites). Furthermore you can always delete your content again. I've seen almost similar legal paragraphs on YouTube and I think it's basically just Issuu covering their back, so that some jerk doesn't want to cash inon their (potential) success. On the other hand, if they were to i.e. resell your academic articles, they probably wouldn't get far, eh?

where does it state that it has the right to exploit the materials you upload? I need to show this to my boss.
