They would have so much goodwill across the board if they dropped it to something like 10%.
Apple has made these mistakes before (eg. the iBooks price collusion lawsuit).
- granzymes 6y agoIf they had done the exact same thing they did today but settled on 10% instead of 15% I am extremely confident that the response from HN would have been the same.
- sjwright 6y agoAnd that's despite 15% likely being near to or below cost for Apple. Remember, Apple sells a LOT of store credit through retail gift cards where Apple probably sees less than 80 cents in the dollar.
- diebeforei485 6y agoOh I meant 10% for everyone, not just for "small businesses".
- swiley 6y agoIt could be 0%, they could pay developers to put apps on the app store and most people would still hate them because the money isn't the problem. Me not being able to recompile colloquy with a different push server and install it on my phone is the problem!
