How do bring about the creation of a huge, public online collection of works from some of the world's greatest libraries? Well, the American way is for two young guys to turn their doctoral thesis into revolutionary global company and make themselves billionaires in the process. Then, they leverage that power, influence and the quality of their product into dealmaking with libraries to rapidly get the online mega-library online for all the world's people to enjoy -- making themselves even richer in the process.
The European way is wait until the Americans start building their library, then react by protesting to the E.U., forcing them to raise taxes even higher and spend millions to build a government-subsidized alternative library to protect against the Americanization of European history and culture.
