I don't understand what the screenshot is trying to convey.
- g_p 6y agoThis seems to be a support screenshot of the Apple Music app, running on Android. In it, it's asking for the user to enter payment information directly, rather than using Google's payment platform. The significance of this is that Apple is coming under fire lately for their policies around "everyone must use our built-in payments platform" so we can extract 30% of the value of anything you do on our platform that makes money. And indeed, the EU Commission have opened an investigation into Apple on antitrust around this and Apple Pay.

- em500 6y agoThis is a screenshot of the Apple Music app on Android. The point is that any music app on iOS with a screen like this would kicked out of Apple's app store.
