So I guess they are finding out that running an app store isn't very profitable and dare I say suggests that the percentage Apple charges was not unjustified?


No percentage will make it profitable when they are giving away the games.


Seriously? Are you seriously making this argument?

Are you seriously comparing running a PC app store vs App Store? One is the most open platform and the other has only one (1, uno, sole, single) app store.


And which one of them are we reading about laying off employees while admitting they are spending more than they are bringing in?


Google has had plenty of layoffs by now. I don't think Apple has, but they have been not continuing contracts.


The one that doesn't have a monopoly on the market.
