This implies more problems in addition to the Sony mess.

“(6) The Google Book Search case will settle. Months later, everybody will wonder what all the fuss was about.”

I already wonder what it is about. Google isn’t offering whole books for the computer user to look at and read. It is offering a few pages at best. The same can be found in most novels of other works by the same author as a way of advertising.

Short of nervous publication houses almost no one else expects that Google is giving away the goods. Crap if they want the freebee, all they got to do is get a library card and go to the library. There, ream upon ream of published works are free for the taking home and reading.
