Hopefully this helps to get rid of the free to play market. I think free to play games are a blight, so while it’s harsh that companies have to pay Apple 30%, that’s the price to be on iPhone and android devices.

The deal, that many choose not to take, is that Apple gets 30% of things sold on their platform. Whether that’s 30% of a one time $100 fee to purchase or 30% of $1/week in digital Scooby snacks or whatever for the rest of your life.
