Quite frankly, I really didn't care how this case turned out. I'm quite cynical about our legal system and outcomes are frequently based on who's running the show versus the actual merits of a case.

That said; when a company charges too much for a product, I quit buying that product and seek a less expensive alternative. I don't like agency pricing and refuse to buy those books. I don't care if agency pricing gets re-instated or not; it won't affect me. There's always something else to read.
