Norway stepped up its battle with Apple Inc.'s iTunes on Thursday when its consumer ombudsman said the software giant must open access to its music download system by October 1 or face legal action.

Last June, Norway 's powerful ombudsman said iTunes violated Norwegian law by forcing consumers to play their downloaded music on Apple's iPod music player—a landmark decision which prompted other European countries to review the situation.

True! I have never seen India giving any kind of reactions to such situations.
