The $10 they were *sometimes* enjoying.
The apologists like to pretend Amazon sold *every* book for $10.
Those of us who were actually buying ebooks before the conspiracy know that to be a total fabrication.
The other thing to keep in mind is that not only were they stupid enough to break the law over a trivial issue, they were even bigger fools to fully document their intent. With that paper trail, appeal can go straight to SCOTUS and get laughed out in ten minutes. (Five if any of the Justices own Kindles.
