[TS]
00:03:43
◼
►
best friend and his dad we went to see the Phillies had a good time so weird
[TS]
00:03:49
◼
►
game was a very weird game the Phillies lost to the Nationals for 21 and every
[TS]
00:03:56
◼
►
single run in the game was a solo home run kind of a weird game and Cliff Lee
[TS]
00:04:02
◼
►
who was pitching for the Phillies and I we've already lost the entire audience
[TS]
00:04:06
◼
►
by the way
[TS]
00:04:07
◼
►
Cliff Lee pitched for the Phillies they lost 41 he gave up four solo home runs
[TS]
00:04:14
◼
►
but he actually pits a phenomenal game he he had to give the exact numbers on
[TS]
00:04:22
◼
►
but something like he finished the game with seventy strikes and 12 balls he was
[TS]
00:04:28
◼
►
like the highest strike the ball ratio since the year 2000 like in every single
[TS]
00:04:33
◼
►
major league game in the last 13 years he just had like the highest strike the
[TS]
00:04:37
◼
►
ball ratio I I honestly think he might have thrown for bad pitches and every
[TS]
00:04:42
◼
►
single one of them was hit four home and that was the day was bizarre game he was
[TS]
00:04:47
◼
►
like on fire and yet the Phillies was kind of weird how the Phillies doing
[TS]
00:04:53
◼
►
this year not so good there like nine games under 500 I don't know what they
[TS]
00:04:58
◼
►
did last night so maybe there would really weak division did nationally East
[TS]
00:05:04
◼
►
I think terrible there's no excuse for not winning a division of the Mariners
[TS]
00:05:10
◼
►
so it's so painful I am I really don't watch the games that much anymore she
[TS]
00:05:19
◼
►
can't bear to but I'm at a party game happens beyond what I used to do in
[TS]
00:05:28
◼
►
Philly when I was in college in the nineties when the Phillies after
[TS]
00:05:31
◼
►
Phillies had a great team in 93 and 94 is this strike and like 95 96 we would
[TS]
00:05:39
◼
►
just check the schedule and look for when Kurt showing his pit now we really
[TS]
00:05:44
◼
►
did look look for home games were Curt Schilling was gonna pitch and just go
[TS]
00:05:49
◼
►
you know then we'd circle and then we go see him on Curt Schilling days cause I'm
[TS]
00:05:52
◼
►
Curt Schilling days the Phillies are one of the best teams in baseball and when
[TS]
00:05:57
◼
►
other guys you know that's where the Mariners alike with ya feelin so yeah
[TS]
00:06:03
◼
►
yeah so is Rickey Henderson is he played he played in the money went down the
[TS]
00:06:11
◼
►
guidance loves the game so much
[TS]
00:06:13
◼
►
cards apparently but downplayed the minors for a while after he finished
[TS]
00:06:21
◼
►
with the A's sorry I was always a big Rickey Henderson ice cream he's so much
[TS]
00:06:25
◼
►
fun he's he's one of those guys who the rare guy who talks about himself in the
[TS]
00:06:31
◼
►
third person right never use first-person pronoun it's always tricky
[TS]
00:06:36
◼
►
and yet somehow you love him for it and you don't think wow what a douche you
[TS]
00:06:42
◼
►
think you know what the Yankees to the Yankees have great tradition while the
[TS]
00:06:49
◼
►
other teams don't i guess its cuz they don't have been don't care about
[TS]
00:06:52
◼
►
tradition Yankees have all old-timers day every year they did that a couple
[TS]
00:06:56
◼
►
weeks ago so they invite you know a whole bunch of you know all-time yankees
[TS]
00:07:01
◼
►
to come and they play a game before the game
[TS]
00:07:04
◼
►
eleven o'clock you know you know in some of the guys are only out for a couple
[TS]
00:07:08
◼
►
years and you watch him and you think he looks like he could still play he had
[TS]
00:07:14
◼
►
like a ball out to the wall it went out and Ricky was there this year Ricky
[TS]
00:07:19
◼
►
plane and did of course to the snatch catch in the crowd went right and that's
[TS]
00:07:26
◼
►
the sort of thing where you just
[TS]
00:07:27
◼
►
if it weren't Rickey Henderson you signed outfielder do its gnatcatcher
[TS]
00:07:32
◼
►
what an asshole but I think well of course he's gonna do that you can't just
[TS]
00:07:38
◼
►
make a regular catch real news this week I guess the biggest news is got to be
[TS]
00:07:44
◼
►
the the
[TS]
00:07:45
◼
►
e-book price-fixing case right now would be it so i guess i guess im not
[TS]
00:07:55
◼
►
surprised that I lost it didn't seem good you know and I know it sounds funny
[TS]
00:08:00
◼
►
it seems like it too would think this type of case is it is not like what you
[TS]
00:08:04
◼
►
think of when you think of a court case because there's no jury it was like
[TS]
00:08:07
◼
►
before a judge and it's supposed to be this way they gave seen a lot of people
[TS]
00:08:12
◼
►
say that this was a controversial cuz this judged coat is it colder coats
[TS]
00:08:16
◼
►
coats so I know its current coach she said before the trial started that she
[TS]
00:08:23
◼
►
found the DOJ is case against Apple compelling you know and rain in LA
[TS]
00:08:28
◼
►
people like wall how can she be the judge of she's already before the trial
[TS]
00:08:32
◼
►
said that but apparently in this type of case so much of the evidence is
[TS]
00:08:35
◼
►
presented beforehand that that's it's actually perfectly acceptable there's no
[TS]
00:08:38
◼
►
that's that's no reason for Apple to to complain they might have other you no
[TS]
00:08:43
◼
►
reason to complain but not that yeah we just think that they go into these
[TS]
00:08:49
◼
►
things and that their case and then the judge said well alright but that's not
[TS]
00:08:55
◼
►
how it works well that's how a jury case though works in case the jerry is
[TS]
00:08:59
◼
►
supposed not to the judge right the jury is supposed to start with a complete
[TS]
00:09:03
◼
►
blank slate as to the facts and only become you know only the facts presented
[TS]
00:09:07
◼
►
in quarters posed to be tendered but apparently when it's dry before judge
[TS]
00:09:11
◼
►
doesn't work that way so I guess I'm not surprised because you know it's almost
[TS]
00:09:17
◼
►
like it was like a courtesy of you guys are screwed by them but they going to
[TS]
00:09:22
◼
►
appeal Apple seems adamant about it
[TS]
00:09:24
◼
►
yeah and I you know I feel like you know everything Apple makes people crazy I
[TS]
00:09:32
◼
►
mean you and I have talked about this many times how Apple makes Apple
[TS]
00:09:35
◼
►
incorporated makes people crazy and now that this is out there some certain
[TS]
00:09:42
◼
►
people who like Apple somethin somethin guilty price-fixing and it's there you
[TS]
00:09:46
◼
►
go there the evil empire there
[TS]
00:09:48
◼
►
the worst company in the world and i really think no matter what your
[TS]
00:09:51
◼
►
thoughts are on Apple I really do think that it's the cases a lot more subtle
[TS]
00:09:56
◼
►
than that and it certainly is not the case that Apple in any way like
[TS]
00:10:03
◼
►
fix things so as they dominate the e-book industry because they don't
[TS]
00:10:08
◼
►
dominate the book industry they're not even the leading
[TS]
00:10:11
◼
►
I guess their second Amazon but it's a distant second ninety percent something
[TS]
00:10:19
◼
►
like that yeah it's crazy I mean there might even with iBooks being like I
[TS]
00:10:25
◼
►
think a relative success I think you could still say that can go in the
[TS]
00:10:32
◼
►
Kindle Store is a monopoly on e-books so it's very strange that the company that
[TS]
00:10:38
◼
►
enables you know sort of made this case all along like isn't it strange that the
[TS]
00:10:44
◼
►
company that doesn't have a monopoly is the company that the DOJ days is
[TS]
00:10:49
◼
►
pursuing for unduly influence in the market
[TS]
00:10:55
◼
►
Senegal sénégal take on that would maybe be related to an Apple was brought
[TS]
00:11:01
◼
►
before congress few months ago was like may end and at the time it was sort of
[TS]
00:11:08
◼
►
it was noted that they don't really spend that much on lobbying compared to
[TS]
00:11:12
◼
►
a lot of other companies in particular Amazon is one of them an amazon has had
[TS]
00:11:17
◼
►
spent a lot of lobbying because of the whole sales tax that's been a real big
[TS]
00:11:24
◼
►
concern from them and they spend time trying to work that issue to try and
[TS]
00:11:28
◼
►
make that think about you know so that it would work well for them and but you
[TS]
00:11:34
◼
►
know if you were so if one were cynical one would say that going could say that
[TS]
00:11:38
◼
►
if Apple is but more time
[TS]
00:11:40
◼
►
greasing the wheels of politics maybe they wouldn't be in the position of
[TS]
00:11:44
◼
►
their end
[TS]
00:11:44
◼
►
you know that there's somebody tweeted that to me today and I tweeted back to
[TS]
00:11:49
◼
►
them that I didn't think so that was congress in this is Department of
[TS]
00:11:54
◼
►
Justice's executive branch the judges I you know judicial branch and you know I
[TS]
00:11:59
◼
►
am NOT saying the judges are completely apolitical but once you're appointed a
[TS]
00:12:04
◼
►
federal judge you don't have to keep getting reelected so there's no there's
[TS]
00:12:09
◼
►
not as much money shouldn't be employed I don't think there's any kind of the
[TS]
00:12:14
◼
►
judge but the case was pursued at all right
[TS]
00:12:19
◼
►
the justice department is bombers justice and I don't even think it's a
[TS]
00:12:23
◼
►
secret I think that the fact that that it was Amazon that brought you know you
[TS]
00:12:29
◼
►
can't it's like Amazon can file a suit against Apple like this but it was
[TS]
00:12:35
◼
►
Amazon that went to the DOJ and said hey guys should go after these guys there
[TS]
00:12:39
◼
►
they fixed they fix this
[TS]
00:12:41
◼
►
Sherman Act yeah I know but I don't think it's even a secret that the Amazon
[TS]
00:12:47
◼
►
you know petitioned the Department of Justice to pursue a bonus regard our
[TS]
00:12:53
◼
►
good friend out of banks at tidbits had I think I'd like to it yesterday I think
[TS]
00:12:59
◼
►
he had an excellent overview like you read the judge's ruling I did read the
[TS]
00:13:05
◼
►
whole room I read a lot of it though and it was it was actually I thought it was
[TS]
00:13:08
◼
►
fantastic clear in terms of just not being like legalese or anything like
[TS]
00:13:12
◼
►
that like something legal dumb dumb like me just reading sort of follow her logic
[TS]
00:13:19
◼
►
and you know which bits of the evidence she found it interesting and compelling
[TS]
00:13:23
◼
►
and Adam you know road I think a good summary of that yeah yeah I was rushing
[TS]
00:13:30
◼
►
to finish it before we go so what's your take
[TS]
00:13:34
◼
►
well it's always been kind of a weird thing he does seem you know first blush
[TS]
00:13:40
◼
►
it seems like what why are they going after Apple instead of going after
[TS]
00:13:43
◼
►
Amazon but at the same time the things that they went after them for it wasn't
[TS]
00:13:52
◼
►
so much the agency model as it was the things that they did on top of the
[TS]
00:13:55
◼
►
agency model in order to try and make sure so they did they wanted to switch
[TS]
00:13:59
◼
►
to the agency model but they also want to make sure they could still sell books
[TS]
00:14:02
◼
►
at the same price that Ms Huntsville books for so they would get most favored
[TS]
00:14:08
◼
►
nation status in order to be able to price things lower to match Amazon's
[TS]
00:14:13
◼
►
braces and then there was the other thing it was but there was a two things
[TS]
00:14:17
◼
►
that were not so much related to the agency model is just more specifically
[TS]
00:14:22
◼
►
setting the prices was the other one was at the tears yes the tears that the
[TS]
00:14:31
◼
►
setting specific pricing tiers right that you know that Apple I think you
[TS]
00:14:39
◼
►
know this all sort of makes intuitive sense to but the ebook guys wanted much
[TS]
00:14:48
◼
►
higher prices like has paid you know our or hardcover books the publishers the
[TS]
00:14:54
◼
►
publishes the publishers you know had been selling bestsellers like you know
[TS]
00:15:00
◼
►
Stephen King comes out with a new book or fifty shades of grey comes out with a
[TS]
00:15:05
◼
►
new book and that that's going to be like you know he's going to be a
[TS]
00:15:08
◼
►
bestseller and they're like twenty-five thirty bucks hardcover but they sell
[TS]
00:15:15
◼
►
them to the booksellers at like 15 16 bucks with those $30 suggested price in
[TS]
00:15:21
◼
►
the add up to the booksellers to price it somewhere between that suggested
[TS]
00:15:25
◼
►
price and whatever the hotel costes but you know best sellers are generally in
[TS]
00:15:30
◼
►
hardcover in the twenties and they've always managed the book market sort of
[TS]
00:15:36
◼
►
like and this is obviously even predates home video but it's sort of like with
[TS]
00:15:41
◼
►
movies were first movies going the theater
[TS]
00:15:44
◼
►
and are only in the theater and it's like 10 bucks a ticket to go see it in
[TS]
00:15:47
◼
►
to make a lot of money that way and then they weighed in in like you know four
[TS]
00:15:52
◼
►
months later whatever the the home video thing comes out and then you can buy the
[TS]
00:15:56
◼
►
DVD and blu-ray or buy it on iTunes or whatever and then three months later six
[TS]
00:16:05
◼
►
months after that then maybe they'll put it on HBO HBO to train in two years
[TS]
00:16:10
◼
►
later than some stupid commercial channel these tears rolling down the
[TS]
00:16:17
◼
►
book market has always been first the hardcover and then some number of months
[TS]
00:16:22
◼
►
later than they come out with a nice paperback version of it and it's cheaper
[TS]
00:16:25
◼
►
even though it's the exact same book just you know and probably way more
[TS]
00:16:31
◼
►
cheaper than the difference in the actual materials between hardcover and
[TS]
00:16:34
◼
►
paperback books that that the whole concept of ebooks sort of distress that
[TS]
00:16:41
◼
►
there's there's no you can't make like a good version and a better version like
[TS]
00:16:47
◼
►
paperback hardcover there's just the book ratner may be nice nice bounce
[TS]
00:16:56
◼
►
terrible you can get a comic sans version shouldn't even mention that some
[TS]
00:17:05
◼
►
seventies somebody out there and you know like all of like you know like the
[TS]
00:17:14
◼
►
music industry before it they want to put the genie back in the head and go
[TS]
00:17:17
◼
►
back to the days when they could sell the new Stephen King book for $29.99
[TS]
00:17:21
◼
►
instead of 999 and I think a poor based on you know I'm looking at the testimony
[TS]
00:17:32
◼
►
Apple went to these guys and said look you know you guys gotta get realistic
[TS]
00:17:36
◼
►
the ebook you know fifteen bucks is kinda high for any you know that that
[TS]
00:17:41
◼
►
should be like your target for like hype like a bestseller 15 bucks I trust us we
[TS]
00:17:46
◼
►

hearing strategy I guess they got you know it's not just like a suggestion it
[TS]
00:18:12

was sort of like a rule from Apple yeah definitely counted against yeah I mean
[TS]
00:18:17

when you take that and you take it to all the major publishers and say hey
[TS]
00:18:21

let's let's do this
[TS]
00:18:23

ok that sounds like you know what you traditionally think of as well and then
[TS]
00:18:31

there's also the collusion because they had the phone records and showed that

00:18:36

you know prior to 80 QS like whirlwind tour of the new york publishers you know

00:18:43

Random House Random House to whoever else suggesting that they were you know
[TS]
00:18:58
◼

all sort of the other thing is I I don't know how this could have happened
[TS]
00:19:03
◼
►
without saying without Apple saying you guys should if your gonna switch to the
[TS]
00:19:11
◼
►
agency model which is really effectively it's not that complicated it's the App
[TS]
00:19:18
◼
►
Store model where you set as the seller you the publisher so you don't set a
[TS]
00:19:25
◼
►
wholesale price you set the resale the retail price and we take 30% and you
[TS]
00:19:32
◼
►
keep 70% and that's it
[TS]
00:19:34
◼
►
you set a price customer pays it and will give youth seventy percent of that
[TS]
00:19:38
◼
►
that's another way of thinking about it is that Apple went to these publishers
[TS]
00:19:45
◼
►
and said we we want to sell e-books exactly like we sell apps you set a
[TS]
00:19:52
◼
►
price will give you 70 percent and will will handle all the distribution I don't
[TS]
00:19:57
◼
►
see how they could have done it without getting them all on board right
[TS]
00:20:05
◼
►
and I guess that's the other thing I'm can still confused about is what what
[TS]
00:20:13
◼
►
could I have done differently to not be guilty of price fixing in this case
[TS]
00:20:19
◼
►
wouldn't have been enough for them not to get the MFN clause the whatever if
[TS]
00:20:26
◼
►
you're selling it at a lower price somewhere else we get to match the price
[TS]
00:20:29
◼
►
is if they wouldn't have had that clause with that have been enough that might
[TS]
00:20:34
◼

have been enough I mean I would think that Amazon would have had less of an
[TS]
00:20:38
◼

objection and would have been less likely to take you know go to the
[TS]
00:20:42
◼
►
justice department and say go after these guys I don't because that's what
[TS]
00:20:46
◼
►
really because I think that's what Amazon really wanted to be able to do
[TS]
00:20:49
◼
►
though is they want to do they want to have these loss leaders of the could
[TS]
00:20:53
◼

sell just to get people to come to this site right because with the agency model
[TS]
00:20:57

you can't sell at a loss because it's you don't you know there's no there is

no wholesale retail difference it the seller and the creator Pixar retail

price and you just give him seventy percent of it there is no way to

undercut the price and apple an apple never would have been able to sell those
[TS]
00:21:19

books for that price because the publishers wouldn't have set them lol

about this is my guest and because they would steal still some books at $9.99 I
[TS]

you know like it's the fact that the contract for these publishers in the new

agency model you know forbids the retailer from changing the price you
[TS]
00:22:16
◼

know that
[TS]
00:22:16
◼

the price you said it has to be I guess the fundamental issue in the whole thing
[TS]
00:22:24
◼

is the fact that Amazon is right is such a believably different company than
[TS]
00:22:34

anybody would have ever expected to exist they don't pursue profits and

and and I'm not even saying that doesn't make sense that there isn't a certain
[TS]
00:22:49

sense to it because look at what they've done to the physical book industry right
[TS]
00:22:54

they've they've not quite destroyed it but almost destroyed in borders is out

traditional wholesale retail pricing from the publisher publishers

assume that everybody we ship it to you know from booksellers to wal-mart's to

00:23:29
◼

whoever is gonna sell it at a retail price in between 15 and 30 dollars you
[TS]
00:23:34
◼

know probably closer to 30 if they want to sell it closer to 15 go nuts but they
[TS]
00:23:38
◼
►
know it's going to be about 15 because if it was under 15 it's unsustainable
[TS]
00:23:43
◼
►
because it's a loss right and nobody can go forever selling books so nobody
[TS]
00:23:47
◼
►
everything except Amazon figured out a way to do that by selling enough other
[TS]
00:23:52
◼

stuff for profits to break even and so you know forever they've they've sold
[TS]
00:24:01

books at a loss just so that they can dominate the industry and I don't think
[TS]
00:24:05

anybody ever anticipated that a company would existed for how long as Amazon

been telling box probably about close to twenty years you know for fifteen 15

would continuously so however ebook at a loss to Louisville and I they just never

anticipated that and then I think taking that same business model te books where

Amazon didn't have to destroy the existing infrastructure of physical

inside your malls targets in wal-marts and everywhere else for you could

market was brand new and Amazon came right out of the gate and and sort of
[TS]
00:24:56
◼

established themselves as the leader ever being a pilot of the time thinking
[TS]
00:25:02

of great books will be able to pay a lot less for books cuz it's just you know

it's just ones and zeros

paying basically no I don't know about that then maybe I maybe an inflation but

I mean paperbacks 478 bugs I just as I thought we'd get ebooks for like two

would like to see author's stars

00:25:43

well I also assume that the authors weren't really getting all the money

00:25:48
◼

anyway and I didn't care of Random House start keep sending the same amount of
[TS]
00:25:54

the Opera just squeeze out random house I do think and I think that's something
[TS]
00:25:58
◼

about this ebook case for it it's it's more complicated than then I think a
[TS]
00:26:05
◼

typical case because there's a bunch of interested parties clearly there's
[TS]
00:26:10
◼

Amazon and Apple and Amazon and Apple are both fine
[TS]
00:26:12
◼

what they're both very very successful companies enabling particular doesn't
[TS]
00:26:18
◼
►
need ebooks they could just get out of the e-book business and it would be a
[TS]
00:26:23
◼
►
rounding error in their finances you know people would probably still read
[TS]
00:26:30
◼
►
just as many books on their iPads which dentist do it all on Kindle app probably
[TS]
00:26:36
◼
►
wouldn't decrease the actual reading of the box on iPad there's the publishers
[TS]
00:26:44
◼
►
there's authors and then of course there's consumers the readers and so
[TS]
00:26:52
◼
►
what I see on Twitter and in my email from people who send me feedback on my
[TS]
00:26:57
◼
►
coverage of the case which hasn't been extensive i mean but you know there's
[TS]
00:27:03
◼
►
there's there's definitely a strong contingent of the consumer side probably
[TS]
00:27:09
◼
►
people listening to the show right now but definitely people who read my stuff
[TS]
00:27:14
◼
►
whose take on it is is as simple as lower prices are better for consumers
[TS]
00:27:20
◼
►
period and so you know amazon selling all ebooks are trying to sell all of
[TS]
00:27:26
◼
►
them at the most $9.99 was great for readers and Apple's entry into the
[TS]
00:27:31
◼
►
market breaking that and raising a lot of e-book prices to $15 you know and and
[TS]
00:27:37
◼
►
an average that's now somewhere between ten and fifteen dollars is you know in
[TS]
00:27:42
◼
►
and of itself bad you know the market is now in worse shape than it was before
[TS]
00:27:46
◼
►
and so it's good that the department of justice when after Apple because this is
[TS]
00:27:52
◼
►
a bad thing you know there's a certain logic to that argument but i'd i'd
[TS]
00:27:57
◼
►
really think that the show
[TS]
00:27:58
◼
►
short I I think it shortsighted because I don't think it's I don't think that
[TS]
00:28:02
◼
►
the Amazon dominating the e-book market was gonna be good for consumers in the
[TS]
00:28:07
◼
►
long term right I don't and you see it there was a near Times article last
[TS]
00:28:12
◼
►
month about how amazon has started now finally raising prices on physical books
[TS]
00:28:19
◼
►
after years and years of always being the lowest you know price now the day
[TS]
00:28:23
◼
►
dominated so strongly and they've driven so many other competitors out of
[TS]
00:28:29
◼
►
business now they're starting to raise prices and I think that's almost
[TS]
00:28:33
◼
►
certainly what they would have done or might even still do with the e-book
[TS]
00:28:36
◼
►
market sunday is grow dominated so strongly that they can eventually you
[TS]
00:28:41
◼
►
know that everybody is dependent upon them and then they can say okay now
[TS]
00:28:45
◼
►
we're gonna keep selling books like I think that their long-term plan was in
[TS]
00:28:50
◼
►
the short term keep I need wholesale ebooks at 15:14 15 bucks element $9.99
[TS]
00:28:55
◼
►
at a loss but then eventually go to the publishers and say you know we're sick
[TS]
00:28:59
◼
►
of selling these things that allows we're going to keep sending them to
[TS]
00:29:01
◼
►
people at 999 but we're only gonna give you $7 and now we're going to keep $2 of
[TS]
00:29:08
◼
►
it and take it or leave it and if they're selling ninety percent of all
[TS]
00:29:12
◼
►
the books they might have to take that I think that's the future that publishers
[TS]
00:29:16
◼
►
feared and I don't think that there's any reason to think that that's crazy
[TS]
00:29:19
◼

theory and i know i think thats sort of along the lines of the argument Steve

they the individually published books for Apple got in there was there was

flipped rate newsday takes her before Apple launched the App Store
[TS]
00:29:56
◼

did they stick they take an eccentric seventy percent as opposed to 30%
[TS]
00:29:59
◼
►
remember what I missing something but it was something I'm assuming that it was
[TS]
00:30:06
◼
►
individually published book I think it was you could because you could publish
[TS]
00:30:10
◼
►
a book as an app on the App Store came out but now basically taking 70 percent
[TS]
00:30:22
◼
►
and an apple came out and they had to flip it was only taking 30 percent so it
[TS]
00:30:33
◼
►
doesn't yeah I mean even though their bare selling things cheaply now more
[TS]
00:30:41
◼
►
than ever that that always selling things deeply isn't necessarily the best
[TS]
00:30:45
◼
►
thing I think the App Store Apple's App Store is also an example well and I
[TS]
00:30:54
◼
►
think that there's a certain fundamental truth to it that it's it is ultimately
[TS]
00:30:58
◼
►
unsustainable I mean at some point in theory I think you know and maybe you
[TS]
00:31:05
◼
►
know maybe we literally talking that decades and decades long event horizon
[TS]
00:31:10
◼
►
Amazon can't keep selling them at a loss
[TS]
00:31:13
◼
►
something's gotta give you know it's unsustainable and it's all you know in
[TS]
00:31:17
◼
►
general I think it's better to set up a business to be sustainable right from
[TS]
00:31:21
◼
►
the start you know and the agency model is sustainable because it's you know
[TS]
00:31:26
◼
►
there's no selling at a loss involved yeah I guess I wondered what sustainable
[TS]
00:31:32
◼
►
means though if it had been doing it for 15 years that's a fairly long horizon
[TS]
00:31:39
◼
►
yeah I guess so
[TS]
00:31:41
◼
►
the thing that has always made me you know I'm a double-double side of the
[TS]
00:31:48
◼
►
argument is the fact that the authors guild I mean to say all authors
[TS]
00:31:54
◼
►
certainly Authors Guild doesn't speak for everybody but the authors guild was
[TS]
00:31:59
◼
►
strongly on Apple's side you know it was against Amazon side you know any any
[TS]
00:32:03
◼
►
other thing too i mean it's not even about sustainability
[TS]
00:32:07
◼
►
it's just sort of the it's the way that pricing is part of your branding right
[TS]
00:32:13
◼
►
here prices party for any product is sort of part of the brand and you know
[TS]
00:32:18
◼
►
the publishers were concerned about the $9.99 e-book pricing because they felt
[TS]
00:32:22
◼
►
like it was setting the you know the expectation in consumers minds the
[TS]
00:32:26
◼
►
e-books were worth a lot less than physical books and you know it's like
[TS]
00:32:32
◼
►
you even said a few minutes ago that maybe that is right you know you know
[TS]
00:32:36
◼

that because you're not paying for all of this paper and printing in all the
[TS]
00:32:42

physical shipping in that truck loaded up with all these books to drive across
[TS]
00:32:46

the country and ship these books everywhere they you should expect to pay
[TS]
00:32:49
◼

a lot less maybe but the publishers didn't like it and realized I think
[TS]
00:32:55
◼
►
correctly I think that the longer Amazon went selling bestsellers like brand new
[TS]
00:33:00
◼
►
books for $9.99 the more strongly entrenched in consumers minds it would
[TS]
00:33:04
◼

be that that's what books should cause ebooks should cost values the product is
[TS]
00:33:12
◼

almost like a control issue that they've lost they lost control over the pricing
[TS]
00:33:16

of their own product which i think is frustrating and maybe they're wrong
[TS]
00:33:20
◼

maybe they're wrong about expecting to get those higher prices but I don't
[TS]
00:33:24

[TS]
00:36:30
◼
►
it right
[TS]
00:36:33
◼
►
a work-release program he seems like a guy who could handle himself in jail
[TS]
00:36:37
◼
►

[TS]
00:36:44

00:36:55
◼
►
wouldn't trade my cigarettes in trouble now I have to pay a bit to pay back
[TS]
00:37:15
◼
►
people who bought you know about that too I guess that you know first Apple is
[TS]
00:37:23
◼
►
is said there you know who knows if they're going to follow but they said
[TS]
00:37:25
◼
►
they're going to appeal and I guess if they do then has to come first let's
[TS]
00:37:31
◼
►
presume that either they don't appeal or they appealing lose then it's it's a
[TS]
00:37:37
◼
►
separate hearing to establish damages and and you know
[TS]
00:37:41
◼
►
apples can have to pay some number of million dollars
[TS]
00:37:44
◼
►
where does the money go though I don't know does did the government has taken
[TS]
00:37:47
◼
►
or is it somehow reno yeah I think you'd end up well I know it's not a class suit
[TS]
00:37:53
◼
►
right as a class action lawsuit
[TS]
00:37:55
◼
►
I don't see how they could possibly return the money to consumers I think
[TS]
00:38:00
◼
►
they pay the fine to the government the government keeps it right Obama said
[TS]
00:38:06
◼
►
that works right there en know how to get into that will the Google lives of
[TS]
00:38:17
◼
►
the people who made it through the sports references I guess that's how it
[TS]
00:38:24
◼
►
yeah I guess I mean that's what's so well Microsoft there she was different
[TS]
00:38:35
◼
►
they basically had to break up their products
[TS]
00:38:42
◼
►
fine and that was a bigger and more complicated and wider reaching case
[TS]
00:38:49
◼
►
because again that was that was about the fundamentals of the company I was
[TS]
00:38:53
◼
►
about Windows and Office I mean it was about everything that Microsoft
[TS]
00:38:57
◼
►
Microsoft case was truly about everything
[TS]
00:39:01
◼
►
fundamental to the company whereas like I said you know if the ruling were i
[TS]
00:39:06
◼
►
mean i dont this isn't even on the table but if the ruling where Apple is forced
[TS]
00:39:10
◼
►
to leave the e-book market iBookstore shutdown that would I i would have
[TS]
00:39:14
◼
►
almost no effect on Apple whatsoever I mean maybe that's overstating it a bit
[TS]
00:39:19
◼
►
but you know I think would be embarrassing certainly but certainly
[TS]
00:39:24
◼
►
gives its early gains Amazon will leverage yeah but the routine which
[TS]
00:39:29
◼
►
ultimately is bad for consumers but anyway that's not what's happening but
[TS]
00:39:34
◼
►
the other thing though is that it's not gonna put the genie back in the bottle
[TS]
00:39:38
◼
►
and switch the market back to the way it was before wholesale retail like the
[TS]
00:39:43
◼
►
agency models still stands between even with publishers
[TS]
00:39:47
◼
►
and Amazon you know I got a bunch of the publishers are guess all of the
[TS]
00:39:55
◼
►
publishers rather than stand without balloon fight the case all of the
[TS]
00:39:58
◼
►
publishers settled with the DOJ you know a year ago
[TS]
00:40:01
◼
►
months ago and I guess just paid fines but they didn't really have to change
[TS]
00:40:06
◼
►
the way they do business so is the next phase of the trial was supposed to be
[TS]
00:40:17
◼

[TS]
00:40:20
◼
►
judges is going to pick some number of you know fifty million dollars an apple
[TS]
00:40:24
◼
►
pays fine and you know all things gets forgotten but I i mean it I don't think
[TS]
00:40:29
◼
►

[TS]
00:40:35
◼
►

[TS]
00:40:45
◼
►
I guess theory is also that Amazon customers were hurt by it too I guess so
[TS]
00:40:51
◼
►
but its money back to Amazon customers right but there's nothing like the
[TS]
00:40:56

[TS]
00:59:44

[TS]
00:59:50
◼

[TS]
01:00:09
◼

[TS]
01:00:14
◼

like any accident you want to make sure I mean maybe have somebody checking out
[TS]
01:00:18
◼

[TS]
01:00:50
◼
►
there would be paperwork I guess but it seems like six or seven hours of
[TS]
01:00:54
◼
►
paperwork is asking a lot airport everything takes longer to reply I guess
[TS]
01:01:02
◼
►
I would be ok you probably have to fill out some certainly can't even imagine
[TS]
01:01:10
◼
►
as all other luggage is probably the burned after that well in the luggage
[TS]
01:01:18
◼
►
goes on the bottom right so you have to presume that that just got destroyed by
[TS]
01:01:23
◼
►
the friction and that's the plan is it didn't go on the wheels it to slit I
[TS]
01:01:28
◼
►
would I would guess that luggage that was underneath was pretty much toast for
[TS]
01:01:32
◼
►
you probably stuck in a while back but maybe the overhead bags the stuff you
[TS]
01:01:35
◼
►
put over your seat might have been right now and I guess that's the other thing
[TS]
01:01:42
◼
►
too though I would want I would want it you know once you get the fire out can I
[TS]
01:01:46
◼
►
get in there and get my over head back that asking too much of my name is you
[TS]
01:01:52
◼
►
know you're the ones who crashed the fuck an airplane to let me get my bag
[TS]
01:01:56
◼
►
and let me get on you know get on with my trip but you probably thought of this
[TS]
01:02:01
◼
►
have you ever thought about this I mean I think about it every time it's just
[TS]
01:02:05
◼
►
the FB fly over the water and then you see a bunch of rocks and then there's
[TS]
01:02:10
◼
►
the there's the runway right yeah and everyone you know every time I find I
[TS]
01:02:15
◼
►
think wow it's kind of amazing that they pull this off all the time
[TS]
01:02:23
◼
►
think like every once in a while someone would just guess so I don't know that
[TS]
01:02:33
◼
►
does seem you know again now I'm not making light of it seems it seems like
[TS]
01:02:38
◼
►
it was pilot error to see you know it doesn't seem like yeah that's what's
[TS]
01:02:41
◼
►
that's what that's what I guess it's the sort of thing they weren't going fast
[TS]
01:02:45
◼
►
enough to go on like a hundred and thirty heard and it made it clear that's
[TS]
01:02:53
◼
►
CTEK there's there's a lot more land in front of the it still raised sort of
[TS]
01:03:00
◼
►
plateau to fly over a bunch of others wrote in it raised in a climbs up but
[TS]
01:03:09
◼
►
they're still before you see the actual runway I think there's a lot more dirt
[TS]
01:03:16
◼
►
short you probably just get on it seems to have really long
[TS]
01:03:20
◼
►
runways because I don't really even recall seeing the beginning or end of a
[TS]
01:03:24
◼
►
runway it seems like we're already landing in the middle of it and already
[TS]
01:03:28
◼
►
you know taking off always in the middle of it I i dont maybe I'm wrong but I
[TS]
01:03:32
◼
►
think we have a very long runways the one airport I've been to that I am NOT I
[TS]
01:03:39
◼
►
have had you on we talked about your uncomfortable yes like anxiety I'm not
[TS]
01:03:45
◼
►
I'm not nervous flyer said that before but the one airport into that have to
[TS]
01:03:50
◼
►
say made me a little nervous is Wellington New Zealand yeah unbelievably
[TS]
01:03:57
◼
►
short runway at the runways about 30 feet long commercial airliners and you
[TS]
01:04:05
◼
►
don't know that when you're landing like the first time you go and I'm not you
[TS]
01:04:09
◼
►
know I don't like stare out the window while we're planning on using it anyway
[TS]
01:04:14
◼
►
but we took a high tech web stock and went to the mountain that looks at you
[TS]
01:04:21
◼
►
can look right down over the airport and its like shockingly short runway and
[TS]
01:04:27
◼
►
that made me a little nervous about this taken off the next time really seems
[TS]
01:04:32
◼
►
like you got it back up to the last inch and in really gunned it and then you
[TS]
01:04:37
◼
►
don't take off like the plane doesn't take off until he gets to the end of the
[TS]
01:04:39
◼
►
runway seems like like a white you get like one shot my brother landed on
[TS]
01:04:46
◼
►
aircraft carrier once I'm that crazy that when you think about it he says he
[TS]
01:04:51
◼
►
does military military expert at the Naval Postgraduate School in Monterey
[TS]
01:04:58
◼
►
and occasional in the past is gone on to these ships to do talks officers so yeah
[TS]
01:05:08
◼
►
yeah so he stopping his he'd you you basically just get use to a stop the
[TS]
01:05:19
◼
►
only way it works is with those like bungee cords right yeah you gonna hook
[TS]
01:05:23
◼
►
launching and landing
[TS]
01:05:29
◼
►
tell her both to land and there's like something I think
[TS]
01:05:33
◼
►
something like a slingshot yeah yeah but the distal get the plane to stop it's
[TS]
01:05:41
◼
►
almost like flying into a net right here is the other part about this that I i
[TS]
01:05:47
◼
►
this would make me very very nervous have to say even as it generally not
[TS]
01:05:53
◼
►
nervous fires the fact and I think about it makes intuitive sense cuz they
[TS]
01:05:56
◼
►
investigate the hell out of these things to fight you know they're going to
[TS]
01:05:59
◼
►
investigate every single detail of the plane is that that the plane I don't
[TS]
01:06:03
◼
►
know if it is as we speak but as of yesterday or the day before was still
[TS]
01:06:07
◼
►
there on the runway at SFO the burned-out hulk of the crash plane
[TS]
01:06:13
◼
►
because you know the FAA investigators were still going over it it's like a
[TS]
01:06:18
◼
►
crime scene almost like you can't can't move in
[TS]
01:06:21
◼
►
yeah and so like you know there's all sorts of tweets from people who are like
[TS]

[TS]
01:06:30
◼
►
off and it's going around crashed airplane like I have to admit that that
[TS]

piece just fell off and then they turned around and came back with us so that was
[TS]
01:07:14

amy is like you nervous fire very nervous and she was when this happen
[TS]
01:07:30
◼
►
plane crash happened she was very keenly following the breaking news but I think
[TS]
01:07:34
◼

also like you like she was a following a breaking news but like not like looking
[TS]
01:07:39
◼
►
at the pictures look at the pictures 1 watch the video but keenly observed in
[TS]
01:07:49
◼
►
this mid makes her a flight anxiety like now that there's been a crash like the
[TS]
01:07:56
◼
►
fact that like I said what is great because this is like the first it's been
[TS]
01:08:00
◼

like four and a half years since there is like the longest stretch in the
[TS]
01:08:03
◼

history of the united states without a commercial air for airlines yeah which
[TS]
01:08:08
◼

◼
►
yeah yeah I mean for me it's kind of a six and one half because it's in a way
[TS]
01:08:34
◼

because my face my fears just like the whole thing goes so it's kind of like
[TS]
01:08:40
◼
►
well you know sometimes you have an accident and that doesn't happen but at
[TS]
01:08:45
◼
►
the same time enough for you like it almost like a like a wily coyote type
[TS]
01:08:52
◼
►
thing or maybe like the only reason that these planes can fly is that we think
[TS]
01:08:59
◼
►
they can play and eventually the laws of physics are gonna catch up in the middle
[TS]
01:09:03
◼
►
of a flight the laws of physics are going to say hey a gigantic bucked hey
[TS]
01:09:09
◼
►
look at look down
[TS]
01:09:10
◼
►
yeah exactly as always when which is always when the cartoon character falls

turbulence I know which is really usually not the problem it's always it's
[TS]
01:09:35
◼

always take off
[TS]
01:09:37
◼

and particularly landing might actually be using I took a flying lesson just to
[TS]
01:09:41
◼

try to help myself and the guys around a little plane for a while and he let me
[TS]
01:09:47
◼

fly in flying and flying through the air as through the air was nothing nothing
[TS]
01:09:55
◼
►
up there i mean you know you're just flying through the area just got to keep
[TS]
01:09:59
◼

it level and you fly landing that the hard part and and even by taking office
[TS]
01:10:05
◼

just going up it's easier to go up to bring it down without smashing into the
[TS]
01:10:09
◼

ground flying helicopters is apparently difficult that's hard
[TS]
01:10:13
◼

yeah but flying an airplane is parent jetpacks jetpacks earlier I did you see
[TS]
01:10:20

helicopter you know I saw a tweet about it but didn't follow it what was it I
[TS]
01:10:35
