There's quite a lot of information the DOJ can obtain that won't be available to an investor.

Edit: Quote from the actual DOJ complaint.
"At that time, Publisher Defendants routinely wholesaled those e-books for about that same price[$9.99], which typically was less than the wholesale price of the hardcover versions of the same titles.."

So $9.99 was actually at cost for the NYT and new releases? Not at a loss? No "predatory pricing" at all? Very interesting...
