I don't know if anyone even cares about news dealing with this anymore, but I just saw this and thought I'd pass it along...

Apple E-book Monitor Reports 'Setbacks'

Quote:

In his third report, filed this week, Apple’s court-appointed external compliance monitor Michael Bromwich told Judge Denise Cote that Apple has made some progress on implementing a “robust” antitrust compliance program, but he also reported “significant setbacks.”

Gee, I'm shocked, shocked I tell you, to hear the Bromwich thinks that.

I would imagine that we will find out fairly soon if the appeals court renders Bromwich's opinion moot or not. There are currently two appeals which have been heard and are currently being decided, one of the verdict by Cote and one of the appointment of Bromwich.

Thanks for the update. Interesting, particularly in light of the HarperCollins return to agency pricing as discussing in that thread.
