State AGs Don't Like Google Books Deal, What About Readers?; PC World, 9/18/09

Dave Coursey, PC World; State AGs Don't Like Google Books Deal, What About Readers?:

"Five state attorneys general have joined the opposition to the Google Books settlement, but what the deal means to readers isn't clear. Access to more books sounds great, but will it be?

The five AGs, from Missouri, Connecticut, Pennsylvania, Massachusetts and Washington, have varied reasons for their opposition, ranging from anti-monopoly to how money owed missing authors should be handled. The attorneys general are relatively late arrivals to the case, which already involves the U.S. Justice Department and others"
