What is your inside source information concerning what Google
"wants" ?
This is what Google says it wants:
Quote:
|
Compensation to Authors and Publishers and Control Over Access to Their Works -- Distributing payments earned from online access provided by Google and, prospectively, from similar programs that may be established by other providers, through a newly created independent, not-for-profit Book Rights Registry. The Book Rights Registry will locate rightsholders, collect and maintain accurate rightsholder information, and provide a way for rightsholders to request inclusion in or exclusion from the project.

Do you have
factual information that contradicts that statement or are you implying that the centralized registry is
in fact a scam?
