Norway’s consumer agency has said it remained at odds with Apple Computers over the company’s exclusive link between its iPod music players and online iTunes store, insisting that the songs downloaded at a cost ought to be playable on other music devices.

The agency had given Apple until August 1 to respond to its criticism against iTunes’ incompatibility with digital music players other than the iPod, and iTunes’ legal terms of use.

“Apple has shown a willingness for change and dialogue but we are still far from an agreement,” Bente Oeverli of the Norwegian consumer agency told AFP.

“We remain at odds over the most important things,” Oeverli said.
