EU regulators have said that they will launch an in-depth investigation into Apple’s planned purchase of music recognition app Shazam. The European Commission said an initial probe found Apple may encourage Shazam users to switch to its own music streaming service following a takeover. The European Commission has launched a probe after Apple acquired the company for $19 billion in July. The commission has 90 days to decide whether to approve the deal.
