The app store offers subscriptions. If you subscribe to, say, netflix or hulu using an ios app, apple collects 15-30% of the subscription revenue. Netflix fairly publicly killed the app store subscription payment method in the beginning of the year because of this.
- scarface74 7y agoThat was just the point. At no time did you have to go through the App Store to get s Netflix subscription. You could always go through the Netflix website. Netflix chose to use the App Store as a method for payment even though they didn’t have to. They decided it was worth the trade off. Plenty of subscription services decided it wasn’t from day one.
