Marco literally states that it’s not wrong pointing out that it’s their business prerogative and further they aren’t known for being very generous anyways.
So you’re arguing a straw man.
And if the service revenue was supporting hardware revenue Apple’s services wouldn’t largely be limited to Apple devices.
Besides, Apple is a public company and we can see how those revenues break out. Further, we can guess that even the relatively minuscule service income would largely disappear, if, for example, I could download apps at a 15% discount using a non Apple App Store to an iPhone and not have to jailbreak the iPhone.
- enos_feedler 5y agoI was just arguing the quote "Apple uses their position of power to double-dip" Double dip has connotations that they are taking twice when they should only be taking once. I am simply saying that diverse revenue streams to capture value from a product is not wrong. Therefore, calling out "double dipping" behavior is unfair.
