The users of its devices Apple Lossless Audio CODEC (ALAC), who make purchases of software, books or musicς από τα ψηφιακά καταστήματα της εταιρείας μέσω iTunes, iBooks και App Store έχουν το right to return them within 14 days, without the obligation to justify the return. Exceptions are anything acquired by redeeming an iTunes gift card.
- Apple changed the terms, meeting the requirements of the European directive on the protection of European consumers which has been in force since June of 2014.
Similar change it has not been done on Google Play - where the right of return is limited to 2 hours from the purchase.
The ability to return apps, games and music paid for by Apple's online stores for its devices amounts to an informal free trial of content, the British press says.
In the case of music, the ability to rewrite songs could affect the ranking lists or even lead to copying songs available without the company's copyright management software.
Apple does not mention any terms that could restrict the right of reimbursement, for example by running apps or listening to music.
This means that the user could play within a given return time a game and then return it, an inexperienced commercial practice equivalent to buying a DVD, viewing the movie, and returning the disc with a guaranteed refund, rather than use.
