More information is needed before objecting to what publishers may or may not be doing. If I take "Hamlet" and add annotations, the result is a new work under the copyright law and I can claim copyright in it...no one can copy my book, at least not with the annotations. That doesn't interfere with everyone's continued right to copy Hamlet, per se.
