I think they mean 1 app store for each of their products.
Ah yes, the classic "I didn't commit a crime, I committed 5 crimes" defense. It's a bold move Cotton, lets see how it works for them.
And as someone who owns both an iPhone and an iPad, it’s obviously complete horseshit; If I buy an app on my iPhone and the same app is available on the iPad, it automatically gets added there too.
It seems to be a way to minimize the incoming damage. The EU would have to prosecute each platform separately if the argument holds.
I would be curious to see how they separate those different catalogs on their backend. I assume that the store detects which device and serves a list of compatible apps.
From the article it's just the different stores for different hardware (iPhone, iPad, etc...)
