I thought Kobo was but it couldn't have been for too long. I had forgotten about the indie bookstores.
The bookstores are not going to have negative PR. They are going to receive the compensation because they were the ones harmed. Passing on said compensation to their customers will also be good PR.
The negative PR is hitting the BPH as we speak. They are the ones paying the $151 settlement. That number is likely to be larger for the two that did not settle and Apple if they lose the case.
