The actual complaint leads off with the iBooks thing, which is a terrible start. Apple lost that case and it shouldn’t have; to this day, that result enables Amazon’s effective monopoly on paid ebooks.


IIRC, Apple lost that case because they colluded with publishers to raise ebook prices rather than lower them.

I think they would have won if they hadn’t colluded to set prices.
