"The alternative to an App store with a 30% cut on everything is a store without free apps and a complete ban of in app purchases."
No, absolutely not.
"I personally have never understood the selfish HN user arguments against any particular cut because if you followed those arguments through they would want Apple to give them a negative cut because they only care about themselves with no single though about the consequences of their wishes."
This is ridiculous.
Apple is printing money hand over fist, the richest company in all of history.
The 'alternative' to 30% cut is a 0% cut!
Developers would get 30 percent increase which is might probably 2-3x their profits.
Apple's profits wouldn't be hurt that much.
