The mayo comparison doesn't hold. People go to multiple shop. Apple only allows one shop.
It's definitely the first step of a fight. It's hard to know what the end game is for Epic, but there's several possibilities I can think of:
- moving towards gettibg their own app store, they did this move on computers already. Apple and google start to get under scrutiny for their monoply.
- being on one platforn using their games to bargain the 30% cut on android (android is bigger user base than iphone and users who mainly play there game can change phone). Now that apple did the move of removing all epic games, it makes this bargain more interesting. I know that Epic sued Google as well but but it can always be settled or dropped.

People who pay for a Sam's Club membership do a large amount of their shopping at Sam's Club. Sure they could go to other stores, but that's significantly limited. Also, people can play Fortnite on their laptop or their Android tablet.
- boudin 6y agoThere's no walmart or sam's club where i live so I don't really know what you're talking about, but to buy one product i definitely have multiple choice, i don't have to join a club or something. On my computer it's kinda the same, i can install software from several sources. I buy games from several sources., i don't need to buy a new computer...
