Apple just kicked Fortnite off the App Store

> “Apple, Google, and Android manufacturers make vast, vast profits from the sale of their devices and do not in any way justify the 30 percent cut.”

> Epic launched a game store on PC in which it takes only 12 percent of revenue as a way to try to encourage a similar change in competitor Valve’s Steam marketplace.

"Do not in any way"?

Well, in at least 12% of a way, right, Epic?

And Apple, after acquiring you a new customer by selling them an ecosystem, drops 30% to 15% in year two. So, Epic, you're quibbling over 3% which -- I've seen theirs, and I've seen yours, and it's more than 3% difference in value.

The 15% only applies to subscriptions after 1 year and would never apply to something like the sale of V-bucks which is transactional.

For subscriptions, everyone knows the majority of revenue happen in the first year due to churn.
