Defense of Google Print

gsandler writes Here
is a New York Times editorial in defense of
Google Print  by publisher Tim O’Reilly.
"Authors struggle, mostly in vain, against their fated obscurity. According to Nielsen Bookscan, which tracks sales from major booksellers, only 2 percent of the 1.2 million unique titles sold in 2004 had sales of more than 5,000 copies. Against this backdrop, the recent Authors Guild suit against the Google Library Project is poignantly wrongheaded."”
