Spotify has received permission from Apple to display pricing information on its iOS app for users in the European Union.

Here's What We Know

This was made possible by new EU antitrust rules regarding music streaming services. In March, Apple was fined nearly $2 billion by European regulators for violating antitrust rules. Spotify and Apple have long argued over an update to Spotify's app that would allow the streaming service to show pricing information to users in the EU.

Now Spotify says the app update has been approved and it will be able to display prices for subscriptions and digital goods, including its recently added audiobook collection. This includes the ability to show prices for subscription plans that include audiobook streaming, as well as prices for additional listening hours and individual audiobooks.
