>my ability to seamlessly cancel that subscription has been collectively bargained by Apple Bargained for Apple's benefit, not yours. The end result is that if you ever for any reason want to manage the subscription without an Apple device, you can't. Which directly feeds into the premium they charge you for their devices. It also means that the vendor is forced to implement Apple Payments, and the surcharge is ultimately paid by you. You may have lost money due to subscriptions* , but you are definitely losing money to Apple. * It's easy where I live to call the credit company and block the charge, and the credit company doesn't take 30%.
