09.01.08: EU Regulators Reach Deal With Apple - 0 views

  • Apple Inc. has agreed to scrap its online pricing policies across Europe for its iTunes music downloads, the European Union said Wednesday.

  • E.U. regulators opened a probe into iTunes last year. They alleged distribution agreements Apple signed to sell music from its online stores in E.U. countries contained territorial restrictions which violated E.U. competition rules because consumers can only download music from the iTunes store in their country of residence.
