I wish every subscription service did this. Make it very clear you subbing via Apple so you get charged 100% more. I can't think of a more parasitic rent seeking piece of trash policy then Apple's fucking 30% cut. Google too but you can at-least skip them without them banning you.
- scarface74 4y agoYou can skip Apple too. Plenty of streaming apps don’t allow you to pay within the App Store including Netflix, Spotify, Hulu Live TV, etc. Every retail outlet gets a “cut” when you buy from their store.
- smoldesu 4y agoI hope the consumers know that. It would be a real shame if they accidentally clicked Apple's happy-path IAP and paid twice as much for their YouTube Premium subscription.
