Did anyone here read the article that talked about the fact that our anti-trust laws are written to protect against collusion between like companies (horizontally) rather than between the companies and their resellers (vertically)? I wish I could find the link.

It was an interesting discussion and made me think (fear) that Apple just might get away with this after all.

It was on a pro-Apple site, and it was fascinating - since prior to reading that article I'd only really read forums and blogs who hated the advent of agency pricing as much as I did - to see all the similarly strongly worded comments from those who agreed with Apple.

Oh, how I miss the golden days of Fictionwise!

I too am afraid, regardless of all the arguments and settlements, we'll still end up with Agency Pricing again in less than 2 years, since it wasn't the agency pricing per se that was the issue.
