They are a TRILLION DOLLAR company. They aren't flinching.
They are not a trillion dollae revenue company, not to defend them but it would still hurt. Assuming 50% of the UK population is paying £2 a month for 1tb of storage that £70m a month which is £840m a year. The fine would be three and half years earnings on this product.
Wait - you can get 1tb for £2 there?
I wouldn't mind as much if it was that price.
Comparing the euro price is 2.99 for 1tb so I asumed the £ price would be rounded and lower.
We only get 200 GiB for that price in the USA - I was surprised they offer so much more over there
