Elon Musk: ‘Apple App Store Charges Are Completely Unreasonable’ – IT Pro – News

So if a company expands its product/service, is it always out of financial necessity? Sorry, but a company always does this to guarantee continuity, right? I think that’s a weird argument.

I think you are comparing apples to oranges; the fact is that Apple charges a fee for using the infrastructure. They charge a commission on every transaction in the App Store, which is not fair to developers. That’s not a fact, of course, but I think a lot of people would agree.

If you offer monthly software options, that is a choice that you can take yourself. In addition, you will receive a service for this. Apple provides nothing extra for the consumer outside of the infrastructure of the App Store. Yes, so-called hypocrisy, apps are still regularly removed that have “stolen” customer data anyway.

I think it’s good when people, like Elon Musk, put these situations to the test. After all, this is ultimately aimed at a better product for the consumer. But that’s also an opinion, of course.
