If you walk into a retail store to buy a game do you see a flyer on the game advertising to buy it cheaper at a different store ?
Do you actually think they would tolerate this sort of behaviour ? Because they absolutely do not.
- izacus 6y agoIf the game itself advertises a cheap DLC available on some other store, it will continue to be sold in brick and mortar store for sure. This censorship of in-software messaging is something Apple has normalized and is new at this scale.
- threeseed 6y agoYou are moving the goalposts. For most apps e.g. Netflix we are talking about the core revenue stream not some cheap DLC. In which case no distribution channel today, Apple or otherwise, allows you to use your product to advertise to buy the product cheaper elsewhere. And using the term censorship is ridiculous. It's simply the rules of using the channel. And every channel has their own unique rules.
