Vikass17, 05 Mar 2024They need more migrants and more funds to serve them.So what's the joke with this one? Then let your country take them, if EU helping is not ok. Or you suggest to let them die? What a strange world, even doing good for people is blamed/funny.

      mavwpochka, 05 Mar 2024let them leave, it is not in EU interest to have competotors to these behemothsYou’re right. As long as they can legislate they don’t need to innovate.

It wasn't about alternate music apps, it was about alternate subscription services, like subscription purchased on website (outside of apple's influence) which are cheaper than getting it through apple.

          ROFLMAO I'm sorry but this fine is pure BS! Im not a fan of Apple but seriously not being thr biggest global music streaming provider and aweing first hand for 10yrs many alternatives this is a joke.

          Who doesnt know Spotify or Soundcloud?!

          Whom doesn't look on the internet to see what streaming apps have the music their looking for?! You know USING THE INTERNET LIKE BOOKS TO READ AND FIND STUFF OUT?!

          Is that were the human race is at now?! Cannot use the internet in a basic browser to search for things?!

                  Apple should be ashamed of itself though. It's appalling how it tries to make people pay more money by banning companies from fully advertising their music services. I thought people should be given the choice about what they listen too.
