That is true, but I think it is debatable whether that is a reasonable way to define "market".
It would be as if a vendor wanted to sell their goods in a grocery store. The grocery store says no for some reason. The vendor disagrees and sues them, saying they have a monopoly on all grocery store sales on that particular corner.
"Wait, but there is a grocery store across the street?"
Well, in their law suite they defined market to be just that corner---they excluded the other corner where the Android grocery store is selling things.
- dstaley 6y agoThat is not an apt analogy because the switching costs for grocery stores is no where near as high with iOS. If you want the full argument I highly recommend reading the full legal filing.[1] [1] https://cdn2.unrealengine.com/apple-complaint-734589783.pdf https://cdn2.unrealengine.com/apple-complaint-734589783.pdf
