Ross Mounce has created a very value graphic of publisher Gold OA prices
and licences for about 100 "publishers" (the term cannot be precise as some
journals within a given publisher have different policies)
http://rossmounce.co.uk/2012/08/30/a-visualization-of-gold-open-access-options/

The diagram plots re-use permissions (y) vs price per article (usually APCs
for "Gold OA" or "hybrid Gold OA") (x) .

The diagram is likely to contain fuzziness since (a) some publishers have a
range of price options (b) some publishers do not use licences and it is
difficult to interpret some "permission information".  Publishers are
welcome to indicate enhanced information. I shall relay any substantive
comments on this list to Ross, and suggest you comment directly on his
blog.
