双语新闻：欧盟对苹果处以18亿欧元的反垄断罚款
Xinhua News Agency, Brussels, March 4 (Reporter Zhang Zhaoqing) The European Commission has fined Apple more than 1.8 billion euros for abusing its dominant position in the distribution of music streaming apps and violating EU antitrust rules.
新华社布鲁塞尔3月4日电（记者张兆卿）欧盟委员会4日发表声明，宣布对美国苹果公司处以超过18亿欧元罚款，原因是该公司滥用其在音乐流媒体应用程序分发市场上的主导地位，违反欧盟反垄断法规。
According to the Commission's investigation, Apple imposed restrictions on music streaming app developers, preventing them from adequately informing Apple users of alternative and cheaper music subscription services other than apps, and preventing them from providing instructions on how to subscribe to such services.
欧盟委员会调查显示，苹果对音乐流媒体应用程序开发者施加了限制，阻止他们充分告知苹果用户应用程序以外可替代和更便宜的音乐订阅服务，并阻止他们提供有关如何订阅此类服务的说明。
The European Commission said Apple's "anti-guidance clause" constitutes an unfair trading condition and violates EU antitrust rules.
欧盟委员会说，苹果的这种“反引导条款”属于设置不公平交易条件，违反欧盟反垄断相关法规。
EU officials say the move stems from Apple's alleged abuse of its dominant market position in distributing music streaming apps to iPhone and iPad users through its App Store.
欧盟官员表示，此举源于苹果涉嫌滥用其市场主导地位，通过其App Store向iPhone和iPad用户分发音乐流媒体应用程序。
Apple said in a statement on the same day that the European Commission has not presented any credible evidence of consumer harm, ignoring the reality of a booming market, fierce competition and rapid growth, and Apple will appeal the EU's ruling.
苹果公司当天发表声明说，欧盟委员会并未提出任何消费者受到伤害的可靠证据，忽视了市场蓬勃发展、竞争激烈且快速增长的现实，苹果将就欧盟的裁决提出上诉。
