Apple is reportedly testing a new feature in iOS 17.2 that allows users to import their music playlists from Spotify and other competing services to Apple Music. This development comes alongside news that Apple has been fined $539 million (nearly €500 million) by the EU over a complaint by Spotify regarding in-app tax practices. The fine is part of an antitrust lawsuit brought up by Spotify, accusing Apple of anti-competitive practices in the music streaming market. Apple, however, contends that Spotify seeks 'limitless access' to its tools without appropriate compensation. The European Commission is expected to rule against Apple, based on the music competition probe initiated from Spotify's 2019 complaint.
