There’s no escaping the Apple antitrust story today. I’ll have more about it in tomorrow’s Weekly Update, but for now I’ll just note that there seems to be a fair amount of skepticism about the government’s case, especially against Apple. The Consumer Electronics Association practically worked itself into a Tea Party-lather over the suit, excoriating the Obama Administration for its temerity in going after an American icon like Apple and warning that the nation is heading over a cliff. Hmm. The Wall Street Journal has the most comprehensive overview of case this morning with a solid front-pager. In the meantime, time to load up on low-priced e-books from Amazon now that three of the five publishers sued in the case have settled and agreed to drop the agency pricing model.
