Today, the European Commission has issued a "Statement of Objections" against Apple. This is happening nearly two years after Spotify filed an antitrust complaint with the European Union, raising concerns over the "Apple Tax." European Commission's preliminary conclusion suggests that Apple is finding itself in breach of the EU competition law.

The Statement of Objections is raising issues against the imposition of Apple's own in-app purchase system that is on all third-party music streaming apps that are distributed via the App Store. A preliminary investigation by the EU has found that nearly all music streaming services have to go through the 30% commission that Apple takes on purchases made through the system to end-user. This has resulted in higher in-app music subscription prices. The EU is also concerned that Apple is enforcing restrictions on app developers, and these restrictions prevent them from informing the users about alternative purchasing options.
