  Since it is almost three years ago, I guess it is safe to say that it is not happening. Except Spotify for example start to spent millions to push it.

    The DOJ spent the past three years pursuing the broader case of Apple's collusion with the book publishers — the publishers immediately settled but Apple kept appealing. Those appeals were finally exhausted earlier this year ( http://www.nytimes.com/2016/03/08/technology/apple-supreme-court-ebook-prices.html http://www.nytimes.com/2016/03/08/technology/apple-supreme-c... ) so the DOJ might now take the opportunity to tackle Apple's other anti-competitive tactics. Spotify shouldn't have to spend millions to push it. It's a criminal matter not a civil case. The DOJ is duty-bound to investigate complaints.
