As this lawsuit drags out there will less and less.
Letting this kind of dirty laundry hit the street is a major corporate failure unto itself regardless of what can or cannot be proved in court.
If you look at the self pub explosion, the biggest growth has been in the romance genres and most of the YA-labeled stuff would fit nicely in one or another of the Harlequin imprints. With a major portion of the romance market moving to ebooks, a long fight over ebook contracts exposing a lot of "gotchas" is not going to win too many hearts and minds among the newbies.
And since the vets are the ones suing...
This should have been privately settled and NDA'ed for eternity long ago.
