  1. “centered on Google’s nearly exclusive control over distribution of apps designed for Android phones and the billing systems for the digital commerce occurring within them—a system that generates billions of dollars in annual revenue for the company.”

    Isn’t this the same with the Apple Store?

    1. Exactly what I was thinking. It needs to be exclusive to the devise. What’s next? Microsoft App Store?
