100% of the top 100 paid apps on the App Store pay the full tax. It's a progressive model, and the figure itself is arbitrary anyways. People want a more Mac-like distribution model, and Apple is reluctant to provide it because services are the only thing with wider margin than slave labor cellphones.

- smoldesu 3y agoThe majority of transactions are taxed fully, both by volume and value.
- JimDabell 3y agoI have clearly been talking about organisations not transactions: > The only organisations who pay 30% earn over a million dollars a year from things other than long-term subscriptions. That’s a tiny minority. You’re just changing the point and arguing for the sake of it now.
