Over the course of the past few years, there have been lawsuits against the publishers and Apple. We've seen a couple of outcomes already, with book credits being issued to people who bought books and "overpaid" during the Agency Model period. My credits were about $50 one time, and $10 another.
So, I was surprised by this email in my inbox (and frankly thought it was a scam email) telling me I had a $167 credit, this time from the Apple settlement. You can read more about it and see your credit on the official Amazon announcement. (http://amzn.to/28PDTZ1)
