the good thing about having the market share that apple does is that no one can say they're abusing a monopoly with one product to benefit another. so the itunes store being the only store on iOS doesnt matter. this is different from microsoft and google theres no anti trust law about monopolizing the profits

my favorite sony move was the software used to put music on minidiscs, which added their special OpenMG DRM onto creative commons licensed tracks.

Siri not using google maps can be maddening because apple maps are just all around worse. Like it doesn't know where anything is, I had to loving pull over and open google maps because apple just super insisted there is not a Down to Earth in Aiea. Also Siri does not ever get names of places in hawaii.

quote:Now politicians in France and Germany are seeking to go further. The French government said it would push for a new European law later this year to classify Google and other Web giants like public utilities, forcing them to guarantee access to all of its services like phone operators. In Germany, Economics Minister Sigmar Gabriel advanced the idea of breaking apart Google in a German newspaper this week, though officials acknowledge such a move would require new laws. lmao
