E.g. Amazon sells subscriptions too. Why would Apple receive money for these subscriptions? Apple does nothing for it. Again, change e-books to subscriptions in my example and you get the picture.

Apple
doesn't receive money for those subscriptions made outside the app. This is why your example doesn't work. What they're saying is that they are going to force the developer to put an additional offer inside the app (i.e. in a much more attractive place) and break the link to the offer outside the app. It's that mandatory requirement which is controversial.
