Well, they are perfectly capable of reading, as opposed to you.
Wallace can allege all he wants to, but he fails to allege
anticompetitive effects in an identifiable market.

There is no identifiable market.  That's one of the main problems.  I
pointed out already to you that if he is out for selling his
copyright, the defendants are the wrong people to sue since they don't
even sell their copyright.  And if he is out for licensing copies,
there are no anticompetitive effects going on, since the defendants
are turning profits in those markets, and thus are competitive.

So what in your opinion is the identifiable market?
