CEO Warns Publishers of Google Print

"Bloomsbury chief executive Nigel Newton has warned UK publishers to beware the blandishments of Internet search engine Google.

"Newton argued that the project to digitize books and allow the content to be searched on Google could lead to the ‘Napsterization’ of the publishing industry. The comment preceded a presentation of the Google Print project at the PA‘s annual general meeting, held today (April 19) in London."
