I'm honestly surprised there hasn't been antitrust action over this. Apple are trying to leverage one monopoly (iTunes Music Store for digital music sales) to gain a monopoly in another market (music streaming) by forcing unreasonable terms.
I guess this is also a reflection of the lack of political will for antitrust action. In my view, Apple has long been on thin ground with regards tying but there seems to be a lack of political will to use competition law.
