Competition Bureau asks Indigo, Kobo for Ebook Documents
The Competition Bureau is seeking "records and written returns" from Indigo Books and Music Inc. and Japanese e-reader maker Kobo Inc. as part of a broader probe into alleged anti-competitive behavior in the Canadian ebooks industry.
A hearing is scheduled for Federal Court Wednesday when a judge is to rule on the independent agency's request filed with the court Friday for information from the companies likely related to ebook pricing.
Last February, the court granted the bureau's request for records from ebook publisher Penguin.
