We've fined Apple over €1.8 billion over abusive App Store rules for music streaming providers
For a decade, Apple abused its dominant position by restricting developers from informing consumers about alternative, cheaper music services available outside of the Apple ecosystem.
This is illegal under EU antitrust rules.
