Spotify accuses Apple of messing with its new audiobook project

Spotify vs. Apple: The Audiobook Battle

So, Spotify is not just about music anymore. The streaming service recently entered the audiobook market, offering a whopping 300,000 titles. But Apple seems to be playing hardball, rejecting Spotify’s audiobook purchasing system multiple times. This forced Spotify to get creative, hiding prices within the app and directing sales outside through email links.

The Price Dilemma and the App Store Wars

Spotify argues that Apple’s actions put them at a disadvantage, especially when it comes to pricing transparency. While Apple claims to have provided guidance, Spotify’s CEO isn’t buying it. This clash is just one chapter in the ongoing saga between the two tech giants, with regulatory concerns adding fuel to the fire.
