Tim Sweeney will only earn our respect if he get rid of tencent.

You obviously have no idea where money comes from to develop hollywood movies, huge videogames and other entertainment ventures. Taking Chinese money is like taking American money, it just had to go through China first, lol.

@Micro Tasker I do know that they work and I do not care. They are allowed to have businesses too. Apple used them for slave labor for cheap. Your point?

@Micro Tasker Apple sucks either way. Overpriced and no innovation. And now a monopoly.

@DJ M My comment was in response to the op, not your ‘dumb comment’ remark. To that end, I agree.

It looks like Epic is the winner of this fight. Even if it is forced out of ios.

Shareholders and hedge funds expect Apple to ‘hold the line.’ There is NO reasonable capitulation to Epic and others seeking basic fair payments.

It is time for the government to step in. Both Apple and Facebook need to be regulated.

Apple offers nothing special. It is like Nike. They go off of branding and high prices to be cool.

App Store is no different than (say) Play Store, but as a company Apple make platforms that are technologically unique. So in a way much like Nike, but not in all ways 🙂

Not sure what makes Tim Sweeney think he can sustain a business model like Epic Store. It is heavily subsidized by popularity of Fortnite and once that’s out of the window Epic will have to realize that they have to work with a business model similar to Valve. Also, not sure why conservatives want to regulate big tech? Isn’t free market capitalism supposed to be about less regulation?
Filippo Pirri

Free market capitalism is about competition and sometimes the government need to step in to level the field and enhance innovation.

Yeah, I don’t see any real conservatives in government. Just nonces with their hands out.

I used to like Epic, then they became extremely greedy with the attack on Apple, when their success is in part because of the iOS platform and App Store.
Having said that, Tim looks and sounds like a cool guy and the whole interview was a real pleasure to listen.

So you think taking 30% of your hard work is cool, huh? For doing nothing other than allowing access to build content on one platform? Just wow.
Robert Dimitrov
September 12, 2020 at 1:55 pm
Micro Tasker it’s definitely not cool, but most of the apps are free and don’t generate revenue to cover their operational costs on the Store. In a startup I had, the 70% we got from Apple were enough to cover the development of our bigger and more ambitious product and there are many companies thriving on the 70%. Is 30% too much for hosting, infrastructure and marketing – definitely yes, but there are many benefits because of the platform. Maybe the tax on both Play Store and App Store should be lowered to 20-25%, but can’t be removed completely.
Micro Tasker
September 12, 2020 at 2:04 pm
@Robert Dimitrov I never said ‘free’, but ranging between 15-25% would be more fair. If you have a title with high dev cost and a low return, that would kill your project without some kind of outside financing.
Robert Dimitrov
September 12, 2020 at 2:58 pm
Micro Tasker definitely. We’ll see how this will play out. With the current momentum, antitrust and lawsuits, lowering the taxes will be great.
