I'd have to agree. I love Doctorow's work and his ideas, but this article feels like a retread, old news. I think the problem may be that he has become part of a new establishment, a new status quo. He's writer 1.5 compared to writer 2.0.
Although according to this youtube link he's adopting a NIN approach to his new short story collection; donations, pay what you want, escalating price scales from 0 - infinity. POD printing on the backend. Now THIS is more like Writer 2.0.
