E.U. Fines Apple €1.8 bln Over App Store Rules For Music Streaming Providers

[engine]

The European Union has hit Apple with a €1.8 billion fine over its dominant position for music streaming apps for iPhone and iPad users.

...the Commission found that Apple applied restrictions on app developers preventing them from informing iOS users about alternative and cheaper music subscription services available outside of the app (‘anti-steering provisions'). This is illegal under EU antitrust rules.
