Fixed that for you.
As much as I and others may dislike it, this lawsuit has never been about the "agency pricing model" itself... no matter how much the publishers—and now, apparently, you—seem to want to use that as a distraction. It's about Apple and a group of (supposedly) independent publishers conspiring to put in place a plan (any plan) to fix prices at a higher level. That's it. Please stop trying to insinuate that the agency model is on trial... it's not. It's about all of them coming up with a plan to affect prices
together.
