The U.S Department of Justice's investigation of Apple's alleged anti-competitive practices has grown to include video and other forms of multimedia, the New York Post is reporting. The Post claims that the DoJ has asked several major media companies wether or not they feel Apple is in a position of "undue influence" over their products. This news is following the news that broke out earlier this week of an investigation focusing on Apple's dominance in digital music. Whether or not this will eventually lead to a full-blown antitrust lawsuit being slapped against Apple is unclear, it seems logical though that if anyone is going to battle with Apple, it's going to be the government. As one of the Post's insiders said, "you can't dictate terms to the industry."
