Don Henley, Glenn, Timothy and Joe talk about their plans to record a new studio album. They sound relaxed and optimistic. The Felder firing does get a mention but that's been discussed in the Felder thread.
They talk about Don Henley as the Lyric Police and this is what he has to say:

Here's an analysis from 2006 of why Greatest Hits was the best-selling album in the US.

I was surprised, too, but I thought that maybe I just didn't understand american culture.
On a more serious note, in 2002, Jack Tempchin, JD Souther and Jackson Brown sued Warner/Chapell for underpayment of songwriting royalties for songs on the Greatest Hits album. [Note the suit was against the publishing company representing those artists and not against the Eagles or their management]
