Also few other interesting details emerged like

• Apple thought that half of Amazon's book count,( 200K books) were self published, I thought that was amazing showing the power of self publishing today.
• A student, Sethh Humphrey emailed Apple/Steve Jobs chiding him for the increase in prices of eBooks and Jobs actually replied, another detail I thought pretty amazing.
• Eddy Cue when asked (in a lighter moment)  if he had a picture of a board meeting, he replied "no pictures of  board meetings, just like the courtroom". The court reporter who was facing me looked up and smiled, I smiled back. Yes, there are pictures in federal court, just not photos:) yet.
