I guess the emerging business model is this:

 

    We do a few gratuitous reviews and adopt the books, accepting the bribe offered by the publisher.

 

    Then we use that money to pay the new scholarly-appearing vanity press to publish the articles we need to keep our jobs.

I guess I have come to accept the idea that some scientific-scholarly journals charge for publication.  Hey, I have paid such fees.  However, I am uncomfortable with the idea of accelerating publication of an article based on an author's ability to pay a fee.  Does anyone else share this feeling?
