Topic	Apple charging 30% fee for developers on their App Store is good because ACAB?

Voidgolem posted... "Ticketmaster is right there" I don't have to go through Ticketmaster for everything with events. I do have to go through the apple store if I want to do anything on apple hardware Your argument is flawed. You make a broad approach for Ticketmaster in general, and a narrow scope to just Apple Hardware. Apples to apples(no pun intended) would be market share equivalences. You are talking about all tickets anywhere, I assume, versus apps on a single platform(please correct me if I'm mistaken). The fair comparison would be all ticket sales anywhere versus all apps everywhere. Ticketmaster controls more than 70 percent of the ticketing and live events market in the world. Apples iOS is less than 30 percent. But it ultimately doesn't matter because both Apple and LiveNation-Ticketmaster are in the wrong here. Not only does it not have to be one or the other, it isn't. Both are under investigation, but since Apple's investigation has been going on longer in earnest, it is coming to a head seemingly sooner. --- http://i.imgur.com/nq0Fn6a.jpg <cite>Bandit_Keith posted [p:979491987] in Apple char...
