See how simple that was? Five are now sharing what used to be shared by four. Some may now get a little less, but everyone still gets SOME.

Bad analogy.
Apple has no involvement in the making of the pie. What Apple is doing would be like the landlord insisting on a piece of the pie just because he provides the house (for which they pay). Also you seem to forget that the profits Amazon and such make are part of the 30% therefore it wouldn't be slicing the pie five times like before but only four times and someone dies of hunger.
