Great. No more having to pay $25 to $100 for journal articles. And that money almost entirely went to the publisher, very little to the sponsoring organization or institution and nothing to the scientists. In fact there are a number of published journals that are pay to play. Not only do the publishers charge exorbitant prices for article reprints, and journal articles and subscriptions, they charge the authors a very stiff per page rate.
