RE: Is open access the future for research in a digital world?
I think in certain settings it is very difficult to create fully open source systems. For example in the scientific community your articles need to be peerreviewed and published. Of course these things are not free.
Oh absolutely. The business model of some of these massive publishing houses verges on tyrannical and closes off a lot of that knowledge sharing that is vital to science. A complex situation for sure and so there may never be a straightforward simple solution.
