“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. “
hmmmm..
Amazon was committed to lowering the price to the consumer, Apple was committed to fixing a higher price for their customers.
Amazon is interested in monopolizing the market. You cannot make a profit by selling something you buy for $16 for $10! Nor can you justify selling content as a loss leader to attract buyers to a another product you're selling at cost or less to get people to buy content you're selling below cost! It is economic insanity.
The DOJ claims they've looked at Amazon and investigated their predatory anticompetitive pricing under the antitrust act, but no one can find any record of any such investigation. It pays to make huge donations to Obama, the Democrats, and own the Washington Post!
