I am too. I’m tired of the virulent minority making like they’re the majority (on this subject or others)

  Ask the users: "Would you rather pay less or more?"… see where the majority stands :D

    Users obviously would like to pay less. But you imply that lower commissions somehow trickle down to users. I happily admit that I pocketed the 15% discount I got once the Small Business Program launched and so did all of my peers. I can’t think of a single example where a developer in the SBP lowered their prices. As such, I don’t see what users have to do with it. Not that it’d matter, the topic is developers and how content they are. The big developers don’t seem to care about the commission either, not really anyways. Is a symbol for something else to them. Netflix has had access to 15% for years now via the Apple Video Partner Program[0] and they’ve never even entertained the option because they’d rather take the potential loss in sales than to play nice with the TV app on Apple TV. 0: https://developer.apple.com/programs/video-partner/ https://developer.apple.com/programs/video-partner/

      Your reply goes completely OT. We are talking about app store, not specifically what netflix does or doesn't do.

        The topic at hand is developers, more specifically developer sentiment towards Apple and the App Store. That is the topic of the article (RTFA) and it’s the topic of the GP you replied to originally. You had no qualms going OT talking about what users would or wouldn’t like, but now when I try to stay on topic and talk about developers, of which Netflix is one, you want to pull the OT card?
