When the open access movement began it was focused on solving two problems -
the affordability problem (i.e. journal subscriptions are way too high, so
research institutions cannot afford to buy access to all the research their
faculty need), and the accessibility problem that this gives rise to. 

 

Today, however, there is a growing sense that what really needs addressing
is an ownership problem - that is, who should "own" and control scholarly
communication?

 

The linked interview with Judy Ruttenberg, Co-Director of SHARE, surfaces
the issues well I think.
