Source : http://news.yahoo.comApple should announce its decision to align the price of its UK iTunes Store to the other iTune Stores available in Europe. As a reminder, while in Euro-based countries, Apple charges 0.99/track, in UK its is almost 10% more.
This is a victory for the British consumer association "Which?" that reported the case to the EC in 2005.
If the level of VAt applied in european countries varies a lot, the current problem for Apple was most likely linked to the regional laws regulating music right owners and non-physical distribution.
