"Consumers Losing Out": European Union Comes for Apple's Walled Garden (VL456)
"The European Commission has informed Apple of its preliminary view that it distorted competition in the music streaming market as it abused its dominant position for the distribution of music streaming apps through its App Store."
Spotify wins the Coalition for App Fairness' first fight in its war against 30% fees, as the European Union announces preliminary findings of Apple's violation of its Competition laws.
But what is the nature and basis of the EC's findings? How do they relate to Epic v Apple? And just how has the whirlwind unleashed by these App sellers playing out across multiple other markets?
A new challenger has appeared...in Virtual Legality.
