Google’s Schmidt To Book Settlement Critics: What’s Your Solution?; Search Engine Land, 9/16/09

Danny Sullivan, Search Engine Land; Google’s Schmidt To Book Settlement Critics: What’s Your Solution?:

"The additional rights, the creation of a book registry and many other details have led some to feel that the entire landscape for digital book publishing and copyright is being changed so radically that a new process should start that involves more than a settlement between Google and the two primary groups that sued it, the Authors Guild and Association Of American Publishers.

But while there are plenty of objections (and to be clear, also lots of support), Schmidt doesn’t see opponents suggesting viable alternatives to resolve the lawsuit."
