Apple’s App Store is facing antitrust complaints around the world.

In an apparent blow to Apple’s ongoing and international antitrust woes over its App Store, the European Union’s European Commission issued a “statement of objections” on Friday saying it believes Apple is abusing its position in the music streaming app marketplace, in what could be a violation of the EU’s antitrust laws. The preliminary findings do not bode well for Apple for the outcome of the commission’s investigation, which was prompted by a complaint from Spotify.
