That will leave room for entrepreneurs who can produce text to put on the
INET and bypass the publishers completely.  Mort wrote a text which he
could choose to market on the INET for a per sight fee.  His actual
earnings would probably be greater than if he were to go through a
publisher.  Text book publishers have long been fleecing the public and
I hope they finally get justice served.
