New York and Connecticut want to be sure Apple Music, the new streaming service announced by Apple this week, doesn't violate antitrust rules. Universal Music Group, responding to requests from the attorneys general of New York and Connecticut, said it is not colluding with Apple nor its rivals to impede competition in the music streaming market. Lawmakers are concerned Apple and its partners are looking for ways to eliminate the option to listen to music for free. Apple Music carries a $10 monthly subscription fee, while competitors such as Pandora and Spotify offer ad-supported versions for free. Apple has not responded publicly about the investigation.
