Read More   Apple's $450M e-books settlement wins final court approval A federal judge in New York has given final approval to a settlement in which Apple will pay $450 million for its role in a conspiracy to fix prices for e-books. Judge Denise Cote of the U.S. District Court in Manhattan called the settlement "fair and reasonable." It requires Apple to pay $400 million to consumers who bought certain books between 2010 and 2012, as well as $50 million in attorneys' fees. Although the settlement is final, Apple only has to pay that amount if it loses its appeal of a 2013 price-fixing ruling. If the appeal is successful, Apple will pay only $50 million to e-book purchasers and $20 million to attorneys. A hearing on the appeal is scheduled for Dec. 15 in Manhattan. Lawyers for the e-book buyers have said they "strongly believe" that Apple's appeal won't be successful.To read this article in full or to leave a comment, please click here Read More   Can't wait for the Apple Watch?
