[Upd-discuss] "want war and peace online? How about 20 pages at a time?" NYT article

[Stark]

The New York Times has an article with the headine "Want 'War and Peace' 
Online? How About 20 Pages at a Time?" (see 
http://www.nytimes.com/2005/11/04/technology/04publish.html?th=&adxnnl=1&emc=th&adxnnlx=1131095102-Fex9S4zd0AcbIAwriC2GeQ)


The article is of about the same quality as the headline, and makes no 
refernence The Gutenberg Project or the public domain.  Nearly every 
paragraph has something that makes me grind my teeth.  The only 
paragraph that makes a passing mention of the fact that copyrights expire is

"Currently, the Google Print program provides free online access to the 
full content of books no longer under copyright, but only limited 
viewing of parts of books that are still protected. Under the plans 
being developed by Google, publishers say, those older, copyrighted 
books could be bought in whole or in part."
