Jim, I apologize if I was responsible for 'bursting your bubble'. I just like to follow the letter of the law...it keeps me safe, it keeps me honest.
Although your idea is a good one (I would've bought a copy for SURE!), I don't really think that it would 'fly'. I understand your frustrations--after all, publishing something like this would not take money out of anyone's purse....BUT, each of these companies paid an incredible amount for the right to copyright their material. They have a right to prevent this sort of thing, whatever their reasoning may be. You have LOTS of other good ideas---don't give up!
