In the digital age, many of the biggest web-based companies offer their services and products for free or at very low prices. Our current antitrust laws are built on pricing, which benefit companies like Amazon that sell goods to consumers at too-good-to-be-true prices. This begs the question, have we given Amazon too much power? What are the societal responsibilities of a business that controls an immense share of the book industry and should the U.S. government protect the price of books?
