RE: iBooks, DOJ, and Apple.
I want Apple to just close up shop with the iBookStore. Pull an Atlas Shrugged. I want them to walk away, after losing, and if the proposed punishments get enforced. I saw screw it. Let the consumer reap the wrath of the DoJ. Let Amazon have control, put publishing houses out of business, become the only publishing company around. I don't ever see them abusing their monopoly status, but that's what they'd have. But who knows what would happen when Bezos isn't around anymore. But seriously, Apple, just close the iBookStore. Too much hassle. Or if possible, close it in the US only. Leave it open in other countries. Just say no to the US. Don't they have the power here? Couldn't they just walk away from this country? Why are they even here anymore? Why not just pack up and leave. Go somewhere else. Is there something here they can't get elsewhere? |
