Nothing nefarious about that. But if you want to find inconsistency, merely point out that books are handled differently. Amazon and B&N (and others) are able to put a free reader in the App store -- and folks buy the books via the respective websites. And that's ok with apple. I wonder at the definition Apple has that distinguishes the book practice from the magazine practice. I have the free Olive Tree bible software on my iPad. If I buy from within the app, Apple gets their cut. If I go to Olive Tree's website and buy a book (the reader software is free, but you buy the bibles and books that the reader works with) -- Apple doesn't get a cut. And there are discounts on the web site that aren't available via the in-app purchase. Again, I wonder at Apple's definitions. Lee |
