5 книжных мейджоров и Apple подали в суд против Amazon

2011-08-10 (Last Modified: 2022-05-11)

“Terrified” by Amazon’s Kindle e-reader and discounted e-book pricing, five major publishers allegedly acted together to increase e-book prices and compel Amazon to abandon its discount sales strategy. That’s the gist of a new class action antitrust lawsuit filed in the US District Court for the Northern District of California by the Hagens Berman litigation group.
The five book sellers named in the suit are HarperCollins, Hachette Book Group, Macmillan, Penguin Group Inc., and Simon & Schuster Inc, plus one more defendant: Apple.

$9.99 за книгу — это мало, с их точки зрения. Самое забавное — то, что к компании издателей присоединилась Apple ))
