Spotify CEO Daniel Ek complains about Apple's anticompetitive practices by saying it 'gives itself every advantage' against its service.

– which he helped to create – the EU Competition watchdog, Elon Musk, and even Epic Games CEO Tim Sweeney.

In 2019, when the music streaming service filed an antitrust complaint, Apple indeed didn’t give a choice for users to subscribe to an app outside Apple’s ecosystem, but now, it’s slowly giving the option to redirect to a website to some app categories. While Apple Music subscribers can indeed subscribe with a more effortless experience, it doesn’t make the service the preferable option for most Apple users. Several reports show that Spotify has at least double the number of subscribers than Apple Music. What Spotify is demanding is something very different.
