ok, lets say we build a software distribution platform and fix a 15% commission to list any software.. Cut - 5 years later, after a billion dollar sales via that platform, and all of a sudden some developers see this 15% as a burden.. Now for an outside consumer, he doesn't care about the split, all he sees is value and return of his purchase.. For a indie developer, getting the much needed traction could be well worth the 15%.. now for a bigger shark this could be a problem and they propose a solution that the store shouldn't be the only one and they will setup a new shop (today for free, with discounted 15% for their products, but one day they when their own side platform grows, they WILL start charging) as a consumer I side with Apple, as a developer am split, but no matter what , I won't Side with EPIC, because, they pay the same cut everywhere else ( XBOX,PS4 etc).. If the counter argument is that apple is getting billions in profits, lets take a devlis advocate position and say apple grows negatively and billions become losses, now will EPIC agree for a 40% cut instead of 30%? NOPE, because that's not how. business works! a contract is a contract!
