The EU charge sheet usually indicates whether a fine is merited and what companies have to do to halt anti-competitive practices.\nThe Commission declined to comment.\nApple referred to its March 2019 blog which said its App Store helped Spotify to benefit from hundreds of millions of app downloads to become Europe's largest music streaming service.\nSpotify in its 2019 complaint to the Commission said Apple unfairly restricts rivals to its own music steaming service Apple Music and also protested against the 30 per cent fee levied on app developers to use Apple's in-app purchase system (IAP).\nIn addition to the Spotify case, the Commission is also investigating Apple's App Stores rules for all competing apps, for e-books and audio books as well as its terms and conditions for its mobile payment service Apple Pay.\nThe UK competition watchdog on Thursday opened an investigation into Apple's practices while the Dutch agency is close to a decision on its own case.","kind":"highlight","is_publish_news":false,"is_publish_highlight":true,"is_publish_live":false,"is_publish_wemedia":null,"editions":null,"column":"","sentiment":"0","news_tag":"","news_rank":0,"symbols":[],"gpt_button":1},"commentList":[{"id":320921112,"gmtCreate":1615001867436,"gmtModify":1704778105230,"author":{"id":"3575365928794226","authorId":"3575365928794226","name":"Jason138","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/5ad85b6a3945a01527a3e64577bb8276","vip":1,"crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"authorIdStr":"3575365928794226","idStr":"3575365928794226"},"htmlText":"Apple
