I think that's an overly pessimistic assessment. There is a growing corpus
of freely available content being managed by the Hathi Trust[1], that
already numbers in the hundreds of thousands of volumes, and soon likely to
be over a million. Also, since government documents are included, there is a
surprising number of post-1923 public domain titles. So let's not rush to
throw the baby out with the bathwater.

Roy, not sure what one has to do with the other. The Google settlement
only relates to in-copyright, out-of-print works, so Google and Hathi
Trust appear to be a null set.
