Apple is also in an interesting position then, where it gets to piggyback on various ISPs infrastructure without paying those ISPs anything.

Let's just ignore that customers pay, both for iphones and for internet access, shall we?

This is just showing poor understandings of personal boundaries.

Yes, Apple is piggybacking on various ISPs infrastructure. That is a deal the ISPs explicitly allowed everyone to do and marketed as a selling point for others to use in their services.

Apple is simply trying to enforce its own boundaries which it established before Spotify came into the picture.
