Ok. Thanks.
#1 I agree with the value proposition of Apple's App Store.
I disagree with your conclusion in two ways.
Treating these digital marketplaces, including App Store, the same as traditional physical marketplaces would remedy most of our current drama. I'm not saying we must nationalize these private platforms, thereby transmuting them to public open markets. I am saying that given their current economic importance, they must be normalized.
The job is as yet not done. As a long time enthusiastic Apple customer, I demand that App Store continues to improve. I want more curation, more safe guards, more fairness. Yes, for customers, App Store is currently best in class. And yet that's a pretty low bar.
re #2. The only opinion I have on the Apple vs Epic vs Fortnite slap fight is that any and all other content providers should also be able to fight it out with Apple on similar footing.
