The Office of Fair Trading in the UK is investigating it for violating our anti-competition laws. We had something similar with real books called the Net Book Agreement, it took years to get rid of that, so I'm not really expecting any quick results here. Any fines the OFT hands out to publishers will only lead to higher prices anyway.
