The Open Content Alliance

SFGate has an article on Brewster Kahle's Open Content Alliance

"While Google has alienated authors and publishers with its plan to digitize books still in copyright, Kahle has moved gingerly, forging collaborations with Google's fiercest archrivals -- Microsoft and Yahoo -- to create a kinder, gentler digital library effort called the Open Content Alliance."

I praise the idea. Any way to get more content available is a good idea. However, to the above quoted paragraph I would add "smaller, and full of books few people are actually looking for" between the words "gentler" and "digital".
