Apple Denies Being Monopolist in Downloading via App Store

Apple is on trial not because of patent-related battles, but on accusations of violating antitrust laws as it only allow iPhone users to download apps through its App Store. The company's lawyers argued that Apple does not violate such laws, citing how it does not set the prices for apps or in-app purchases as well as charging a 30-percent fee for using its app platform. The prosecution and the critics, however, countered that iPhone users only have one option when purchasing apps for their smartphone, thus concludes Apple being a monopolist.
