> You remove any capacity for competition to drive down margins. Apple can ban Spotify tomorrow to promote apple music on their devices, for example. Not anti-competitive in your mind? The amount of REVENUE Apple makes from iTunes is likely less than $5Bn per quarter. Apple is not using their iTunes monopoly to buy chips. They're using their insane amount of phone sales (at absurd profit margins) to buy chips. Again, I hate Apple as much as anyone. Anyone who thinks Apple is a monopoly in phones is a moron. They don't even own 30% of the smartphone market... I agree Apple is anti-competitive within the ecosystem of the iPhone. That's not going to change their ability to buy all of TSMC's chips.
