I fail to see that backlist titles will a significant impact on newer titles. It is a specialized market, geared towards the older set or a connoisseur of the author/genre in question.
I agree that the costs are insignificant to reproduce a backlist book as the publisher may already own copyright but the proofreading etc. is often more difficult.
I love backlist titles of authors I have read in the past and missed a few, but my mother wants the latest author/title more often than not.
