Spotify and Epic Games call Apple’s revised DMA compliance plan ‘confusing,’ ‘illegal’ and ‘unacceptable’


Count Spotify and Epic Games among the Apple critics who are not happy with the iPhone maker’s newly revised compliance plan for the European Union’s Digital Markets Act (DMA). Shortly after Apple announced the updated version on Tuesday, including loosened restrictions along with the addition of two more fees, Spotify shared a statement with TechCrunch calling the plan “unacceptable” and claiming Apple was once again disregarding “the fundamental requirements” of the DMA. Epic Games CEO Tim Sweeney, meanwhile, called the revisions another case of “malicious compliance” involving “junk fees.”
