A Jury Will Decide If Google's App Store Is an Unjust Monopoly
(www.wired.com)
This is a most excellent place for technology news and articles.
If the Google Play store is a monopoly, then what the fuck is the apple store? At least on android you're not forced to only use the play store if you choose, unless you do some sketchy shit to your iPhone, you're stuck with their store only.
I believe the argument Apple used is that the PlayStation or Xbox doesn't need to have an alternative app store and everyone is fine with that, so iPhone is a similar device. Android, on the other hand, allow for installation of external app store.
Epic already tried and failed with the same argument against Apple, from the article:
It’s not an android post without someone trying to make it about Apple instead.
You looked at the text but clearly didn't read it.
They're saying that if Apple won the same lawsuit when it's appstore is an actual monopoly, then Epic doesn't stand a chance against Google.
