<p>As expected (https://9to5mac.com/2021/04/30/eu-commission-to-announce-charges-against-apple-today-regarding-anticompetitive-in-app-purchase-policies/), the head of the EU competition commission Margrethe Vestager today said (https://twitter.com/vestager/status/1388071379094982659) that in their preliminary conclusion, Apple unfairly favored Apple Music over rivals.</p>
<p>This is due to the high commission fees Apple imposes on third-party apps in the App Store and the fact that Apple does not allow app developers to tell users that other purchase methods may be available outside of the application.</p>
