Close, but it's more like "You get a free radio with the car. You can
chose another radio, but of course we've unfairly exploited our
position as a monopoly and harmed the consumer by forcing our competition
away from the marketplace, by our illegal market practices". At least, if
you believe the Justice Department. In this instance I happen to agree
with them.

Ah, but this is getting kinda off-topic.
