About this episode
Is Audible creating a healthy marketplace or a monopoly where indie authors struggle to make a living? CD Reiss, an independent author, sued Audible last year, saying it violated antitrust law by charging higher distribution fees for independent and self-published writers who do not choose Audible-exclusive distribution. Last month, a federal judge ruled that the suit would move forward and awarded it class status. Scott & A discuss the class action, the current state of things, and what this lawsuit might mean.
