This is more or less what happened. It wasn’t necessary to meet with all the publishers at once. Apple (and especially Cue) acted as the go-between or the point person for the entire group.

Yes, this is what happened. Unfortunately for Apple, the first scenario also happened, which is why they got into so much hot water.
