Apple Slams Spotify For Asking For "Preferential Treatment"

Spotify says Apple is using its App Store approval process as
"a weapon." Apple says that claim is a load of BS. In a
letter sent to Spotify general counsel Horacio Gutierrez on
Friday, Apple general counsel Bruce Sewell rebutted the
streaming music service's June 26 allegations that Apple is
"causing grave harm to Spotify and its customers" by rejecting
a recent update to Spotify's iOS app. "We find it troubling
that you are asking for exemptions to the rules we apply to
all developers and are publicly resorting to rumors and
half-truths about our service," Sewell wrote.
