I'm not entirely sure you exist. I filled out forms online and hit Submit but for all I know that could just be a big placebo button to keep us hoping someone will actually do something.

See, boys ... (gosh this is awkward) it doesn't belong to you. It doesn't belong to McArthur anymore either. It belongs to me now and has since June 2013. McArthur and Co. gave it back when they closed their doors.
It's been three years. I've asked you nicely (July 2013 and August 2014) to remove the book from your store as

2) I've published the book myself
3) I want you to
And just like the darling hipsters you are, you still haven't done it. I assume you are too busy believing your own hype to deal with copyright infringement. You still have that shitty interface for customers/authors/the great unwashed to file their complaints into the Apple Buzzkill Cloud where they can be ignored.
This is the response I received after filing a Copyright Infringement Complaint with Apple Legal:

Cheers you fucking assholes. Now get my book out of your store.
