From the article Sabredog referenced, which should be on every BPH CEO's desk tomorrow morning:

Legacy publishers are in the position they are in because they were successful in an age that valued their corporate skills and in which scale was important and profitable. Agency was about protecting that model, that profit. It was couched in language that suggested it was about protecting the value of writing and the incomes of authors (and to be fair, many of those offering those lines do honestly believe them), but really it was about protecting company revenues and shareholders profits.

Maybe the BPH use the same lawyers and PR spinsters as the RIAA and MPAA?

The definition of insanity is.........
