Update 7/30: If you missed the live antitrust hearing you can watch the recording here (and embedded below). We’ve also got details on everything that happened in our live blog if you’d prefer to skim the event instead of watching the full 5+ hour hearing.
For Apple, most of the focus will be around how the company runs its App Store like taking a 30% cut of software sales and other issues like allowing third-parties access to iOS features. Concerns have been formally submitted over the last year by companies like Tile and Spotify. We saw a snafu between email service Hey and Apple last month and Airbnb brought up related issues just this week.
In particular, Apple is likely to be accused by the House Judiciary Committee of a “copy acquire kill” strategy.
For its part, leading up to the hearing Apple has been defending its App Store and business practices with a market study and SVP Phil Schiller said in an interview yesterday that Apple’s goal is to treat all apps in the App Store the same.
