Spotify is now backed up by several companies in an open letter sent to the European Commission's Margrethe Vestager.
As many of you probably know, there's always heated competition between tech companies. And sometimes, a company is bigger than another... in one way or another. Battles between competitors are not a rarity in the tech world. One such battle has been undertaken by Spotify, which is, let's say, unhappy with Apple Music and has taken it to file an antitrust case against Cupertino.
Basically, Spotify is alleging Apple is competing with it via Apple Music in an unfair manner. Spotify is stating that Apple can offer subscriptions within Apple Music with no penalty, but Spotify needs to pay 30% to Apple for doing the same . Back in 2019, Spotify filed an antitrust complaint against Cupertino in Europe. Since then, the European Commission has reached a preliminary conclusion siding with Spotify... but a final decision has not been reached yet.
Now, Spotify has sent an open letter to the Executive Vice President of the European Commission, Margrethe Vestager. The companies that backed the music-streaming platforms represent digital organizations for audio streaming, web software, communications, publishing, and marketplaces.
