It is just as straightforward in this case as I think it is. Claims that Amazon was practicing "predatory pricing" were found to be lacking. Holding a <for the love all that's holy>DOMINANT</for the love of all that's holy> market position and all.

Besides, it's clear that Steve was suggesting that all promotional, loss-leader, or below-cost pricing is predatory. And while he's free to believe that, it certainly doesn't make it true.
