“Is it a fact that certain book prices went up?” asks Cue. “Yes. If you want to convict us on that, then we’re guilty. I knew some prices were going to go up, but hell, the whole world knew it, because that’s what the publishers were saying: ‘We want to get retailers to raise prices, and if we’re not able to, we’re not going to make the books available digitally.’ At the same time, other prices went down too, because now there was competition in the market.”

Me thinks somebody needs to explain to Mr Cue that prices going down from competition means that one retailer needs to lower the price below what the other retailer is selling at. What Mr. Cue did on behalf of Apple was to make that impossible. Yes prices went up on most ebooks because of that but zero prices went down because of Apple.
