Apple confirmed Tuesday that it would require app developers that sell e-books outside of their iPad and iPhone apps — through a Web site, for example — to also sell the books inside those apps. And purchases that originate in the app must be made through Apple, which keeps a 30 percent cut.

If Apple also requires that the prices in-app match prices out-of-app, I could see Amazon being unable to make a profit on their ebooks and exiting the iPad market.
