If you go Larry's site you get a message saying the whole book will be released online by Bloomsbury academic 'sometime soon' (http://remix.lessig.org/remix.php).

Apparently that's the compromise he reached with Penguin. I suspect the 'delay' in the online release is part of that.

Though it is annoying, I agree. Damn you, Penguin.

Because I'm googlebound and mildly PR stunt paranoid, I went hunting for confirmation - Comment 19  http://techdirt.com/article.php?sid=20090109/1349383347#c225

Damn you Penguin!  (May Batman books get you!)
