United States v. Loew's Inc., 371 U.S. 38 (1962), was an antitrust case in which the Supreme Court of the United States held that block booking of movies—the offer of only a combined assortment of movies to an exhibitor—violates the Sherman Antitrust Act.
Besides its legal consequences, the court's decision affected economic theory, explaining product bundling as a form of price discrimination.
