Looks like the web is where the vanity presses are going. Not only is
there Xlibris, but now there's http://www.buybooksontheweb.com.

The Internet is self-publishing. You control the publication and pay
for it. These are vanity presses.
Not that the Internet isn't full of vanity publications. I'm just
using the term in the sense of a publisher who publishes everything
