If you think about it, a fee per app download is a lot less flexible when it comes to monetising purchases. Means free apps either become paid or shove into you a lot more micro transactions. That exact model is what made devs get mad at unity (although unity doesn’t provide the download infrastructure and it was on top of a cut)

Fair. I still don’t think that entitles Apple to a cut of purchases in the app, but you’re right that a download fee sucks.
