Random House has settled a lawsuit against e-book publisher
RosettaBooks, which was selling digital versions of Kurt
Vonnegut's "Cat's Cradle" and seven other popular titles.
Under the terms of the settlement, RosettaBooks will
continue publishing the disputed works and will collaborate
with Random House on additional books.  The settlement
leaves unresolved the issue of whether authors or publishers
control e-rights to books when the contract has no specific
language about the electronic format.
