Stock trading apps' data services are decidedly not consumer SaaS for the mass market. They're business/prosumer, a world that already has success in getting small numbers of profitable subscribers.
The winners are apps that weren't even possible before - $1/month subscriptions for normal people.

- apike 16y agoMy point is that the relationship you describe doesn't exist in the mass consumer space, and Apple is enabling something exciting and new there. Your point is that the pro/business space Apple's "must go through the app store" rule is a nuisance. I think we're both right.
