“That’s false. There was no charging Apple less than others in the agreement with the publishers. Only that Apple had the right to sell to it’s customers at the same retail price anyone else was selling at so that Apple customers would not be at a disadvantage. Quit making up stuff. “

It was stated in court filings that ublishers were making less when Apple was selling at $14.99 than when Amazon was selling at $9.99.

I don’t understand how you say Apple customers would not be at a disadvantage when Apple would charge them $14.99 versus the previous Amazon price of $9.99.

One way is the Kindle app which works on iPhone and iPads. I would buy some books through it, but iBooks is better so I went ahead and switched back and paid the (then) $1 difference.

Now they all are pretty close in price.

Because to the liberals at Apple reality is what they claim it is. To liberals, words are actions.
