I have always been very surprised on how MS could get sued on bundling IE with Windows, without the same happening to Apple on IOS.

  Microsoft was hit with an anti-trust suit in Europe at a time when they had >90% market share in desktop computing. Bundling Internet Explorer was seen as abusing their dominant market position. In Europe, iOS has around 20% market share, whilst Android sits close to 70%. It's really hard to argue that Apple are exploiting their dominant market position. You'd have to count iPhone as its own market.

    Iphone is separate market due to lack of interoperability.

      [Windows] is a separate market share due to lack of interoperability.

  One reason: market share.
