It is time to burn traditional academic publishing to the ground and rebuild it from the ground up, or else let's rebel against the government, give Alexandra Elbakyan citizenship and put her in charge of the Department of Energy to make all computer science research open domain for all the world to see. Requesting $48 for to read a paper funded by your taxes before you even know it is useful to your work will result in deportation or a firing squad, whichever a panel of independent reviewers decides.
A less spirited method is to let traditional publishing slowly die by adding review features to highly viable alternatives like arXiv, PubMed and others which will then replace it. I hate academic publishers, they are vultures that serve no purpose. I hope they all go out of business or somehow pay big :)
