Problem is that Apple is actively trying to prevent that. They have no right to do that and are abusing the power they have in other areas to do it.

- simonh 8y agoHow are Apple trying to prevent people using Spotify or Netflix on smart TVs and Linux desktops?
- JadoJodo 8y agoI suspect spiderfarmer meant that Apple is trying to prevent "[Using] spotify and netflix without going through apple", at least on iOS.
- criddell 8y agoHow? I use Netflix on my iPad all the time and not once has Apple tried to stop me.
- spiderfarmer 8y agoNetflix is not allowed to point people to their website from their App store description, which is absurd to me.
- lowtolerance 8y agoApple is not "actively trying to prevent" people from managing their Spotify, Netflix et al subscriptions outside of their respective iOS apps, what are you talking about?
- ahmedalsudani 8y agoThe app literally can't send you to the Web page so you can sign up there. It has to say something vague for Apple to approve it for publishing. Here's an example from Kobo [1]. They apparently can't even tell you the domain name. [1] http://imgs.fyi/img/7hut.png http://imgs.fyi/img/7hut.png
