Abstract
Bundling?the sale of two or more distinct goods as a package?is a diverse, ubiquitous, and generally procompetitive pricing practice. One of the primary uses of bundling is to offer consumers more attractive packages of goods, resulting in lower costs to the seller, lower prices to the consumer, and greater output.1 Nevertheless, bundling practices in creasingly have been attacked as exemplified by the Third Circuit's deci sion in LePage's, Inc. v. 3M.2
