The approval comes days after a U.S. judge inexplicably ordered Apple to do so. Apple is appealing the ruling which essentially orders to company not to charge for advertising within its App Store. Aisha Malik for TechCrunch: ‎ Apple said on Wednesday that it will comply with the court’s order, but that it strongly disagrees with the decision and will appeal. U.S. District Judge Yvonne Gonzalez Rogers said on Wednesday that Apple violated an order to reform its App Store. The tech giant was told to change its app store to allow developers to send customers to their websites to make purchases. ‎ MacDailyNews Take: Desperate Spotify — relegated behind No.1 Apple Music in subscription music streaming in America, the world’s largest music market — should not get used to not paying for advertising within Apple’s App Store. ‎ Please help support MacDailyNews — and enjoy subscriber-only articles, comments, chat, and more — by subscribing to our Substack: macdailynews.substack.com.
