“Apple's new EU rules will give users a completely new way to pay for iPhone apps” — BUT only if Apple approves it and allows AltStore to operate.
I really hope the EC finds a way to force Apple to play by the rules.

MODERATORS
The European Commission is not amused with Apple's attempt at malicious compliance and already opened the non-compliance process, so if the ECJ doesn't fuck up Apple will either comply or get out of Europe.
I know about the investigation. I’m very interested to see it play out.
