Abstract
This paper contends that we have not made the progress towards Open Access that we might have expected since the Budapest Open Access Initiative in 2002. It applies Philip Kotler’s concept of a ‘Product’ to Academic Publishing and scholarly communications to explain how the different stakeholders derive value from the process.
