美國政府控告蘋果和出版商涉嫌聯合壟斷，蘋果電腦則是否認它與出版商勾結，拉抬電子書的售價。

    蘋果電腦公司被美國司法部以及15個州認為有操控市場價格的嫌疑，蘋果發言人駁斥這種說法，他表示，電子書比傳統的紙本書更具有互動性，蘋果看好它的未來性，為了鼓勵創新以及刺激競爭，蘋果在2012年創設電子書店，蘋果公司宣稱，因為它的跨足，才打破了亞馬遜壟斷電子書市場的局面，美國司法部指控蘋果與出版商聯手制價的說法，完全不是事實。

Apple Inc. says the accusation that it conspired with major book publishers to raise the price of e-books is untrue.

Apple spokesman Tom Neumayr (NEW-myer) says that, contrary to allegations in lawsuits by the Justice Department and 15 states, Apple fostered innovation and competition by introducing its iBookstore in 2010. He says customers have benefited from e-books that are more interactive and engaging.
