As a consumer, I hope nothing changes with the App Store. It may be tough for some app developers, but it sure is a haven for consumers.

- sitzkrieg 6y agohow do you figure? its not that much better with a huge markup
- cgriswald 6y agoI will say the subscription stuff is nice because if I want to cancel something I don’t have to play games, make a tedious phone call (with “exit interview/sales pitch”) or go around in circles on support pages that promise to tell you how to cancel and then lead to a page that doesn’t exist, or actually cancel and have them “forget”, or have them cancel immediately but not give me a prorated refund, or any other shenanigans companies have pulled. I just click a button and it’s done. The service continues through the date I’m paid up until and then is properly canceled.
- belltaco 6y agoYeah I sure love a lot of my money going to middlemen instead of people actually making the things I am buying.
- threeseed 6y agoYou sure Apple has no role in making the things you are buying. They do design and build the phones, SDKs, Developer Tools etc that makes these apps even any good. I used to build apps for Blackberry and Palm devices and I can assure you that their contribution should not be understated.
