WRONG About App Store — Apple vs. Anti-Trust

from Rene Ritchie

Apple vs. Anti-Trust! Get CuriosityStream AND Nebula for less than $15/y (26% off!) https://curiositystream.com/reneritchie Apple’s App Store is under attack. They’re being sued by Spotify in the EU and Epic in the US. Some developers, big and small, are beyond salty over a host of gripes, new and institutional, real and imagined. Gamers are pissed over the lack of Xbox streaming. And regulators have them in their sights as well, breaking out all the old favorites: Monopoly abuse. Anti-competitiveness. Anti-trust. And they… well, they don’t operate with lasers. They operate with hammers. Giant, Götterdämmerung, Mjölnir-like hammers. So, what can Apple do? More to the point, what should Apple do? In this video I’m going to go over what’s most commonly being suggested, from side-loading and alternate app stores to cutting the 30% and offering alternate payment options. As well as all the positives, the negatives, the risks, the rewards, and how all of it could affect you. And I’m going to do it right now.
