    Apple should leave EU. Then, no need to bend the knee.

      I wouldn't want to give Apple a 30% cut.

      You know what? Spotify and other members of the Coalition for App Fairness should just pull out of iOS altogether, and THEN we'll see where that leads.

                        "still need to pay Apple a 30% entitlement commission "

                        What is entitlement commission?

                          Spotify should focus on paying artists more instead of whining to governments to protect their greedy business practices.

                            Some senators and congress people in the US of A are going to be getting some new yachts and summer homes on some coastline soon. Daddy Apple takes REAL good care of its US lobbying beneficiaries to safeguard the Great American Exceptionalism Quotient (R) from evil outside influences like the """EU""" (or more like Ewww! Yuck!).

                              Apple is trying to cash-in its ties with the Biden regime before he left office. Gonna need to fight EU so better do it now before a hostile Trump is president

                                  WhoCaresTM, 26 Apr 2024Who cares... Real music lovers have a library on their PCs... more... because subscription fees are high, right? So, you should care more than anyone else. The fees are high because of antitrust like this.

                                    Always troubles with US greedy tech firms, especially Apple.
