  As we have often discussed on this list, due to the economics and legalities involved in making copyrighted material of marginal interest (the costs to issue are likely to exceed the income from sales), those of us in the US are deprived of information that is PD in most of the rest of the world. Again, it is that difficult juggling act which is endemic to a free market society, namely the rights of the individual versus the right to make a buck. As I type this, I am reminded of the often used phrase that the US is the richest nation, however, unfortunately that "richness" does not necessarily apply to the access of information.
