I would like to gather from the community some examples of works you would like to see made free, works that we are not doing a good job of generating free replacements for, works that could in theory be purchased and freed.
Dream big. Imagine there existed a budget of $100 million to purchase copyrights to be made available under a free license. What would you like to see purchased and released under a free license?
Copyright to out of print k-12 textbooks that are no more than 10 years old would be my #1 choice. We could then take that text and update it on Wikibooks to kick start full textbook creation.
News-service photo archives would be my second choice.
