Having produced three CDROM products myself, I can assure you that any publishing venture is a lot of work. I'd say they've got a lot of work invested in a century of opinions and one-paragraph abstracts. Even collecting all those opinions would be a lot of work. I doubt they were available in electronic form until very recently, which means a lot of re-typing. Not to mention the cost of those law clerks to write summarizing paragraphs. 🙂 Hey, "public domain" means anyone can step forward and do anything with it, particularly add value and re-sell it. So why don't they have any competition?
