"I don't think the 30% has ever been an issue." Seriously? The 30% on apps, the 30% on in-app purchases, 30% on subscriptions, etc., each caused an uproar whe

  Not because of the percentage, but because of the exclusivity. 30% on in-app purchases/subscriptions was only a big deal because Apple required that you use it and match the lowest price anywhere else. (They since backed down on this, but they can change their minds again.)

  30% on apps caused an uproar because it was so much cheaper than the other alternatives. Not to come across as an Apple apologist, but seriously, it wasn't even that frickin' long ago... even in internet time. Those who do not remember the past are condemned to repeat it, repeatedly, in online forums, but in a badly twisted and inaccurate version.
