    Apple just isn’t good at playing this “control an entire industry” game as its contemporaries like Microsoft.

    It’s “embrace, extend, extinguish”. But apples play seems to be more like the five stages of grief.

    • denial, the eu won’t ever force us to do a thing, we’re Apple! They wouldn’t.
    • anger, <- we are here
    • barginning
    • depression
    • acceptance.

        The court rulings better cover every way Apple could avoid compliance.

          Maybe a lawyer could tear this apart and find loopholes, but the law should be so simple as to say:

          “A company providing mobile computing services and products, being hardware, software, or networking, shall allow under all circumstances and without restriction, the installation and usage of applications from all sources.”

          But of course, I’m not a Lawyer, so there’s probably a loophole to be found in that.
