Apple says Epic can return to App Store only if it follows the rules
Suck it, Epic.

Apple not a monopoly but must allow alternate payment methods for apps, judge rules
I don’t think it’ll be good for customers in the short term or Devs in the long term.john gibson said:
Not to worry. No one has suggested the app store will have to show ads for alternative payment methods.j2fusion said:I guess next we’ll see signs from the manufacturer in Walmart saying you can get a better deal for this item at Target.
What Apple was doing was the equivalent of a retailer like Walmart selling an iPhone and then requiring that user go back to Walmart to purchase iCloud or Apple Music and ending that is good for consumers.Customers like convenience. Many aren’t going to navigate to a website, sign in, add CC info, submit payment. Wait for the funds to process then go back to the app and determine if the app updated with the payment.Devs are going to realize the pains of processing CC, secure user logins and have it sync up to the apps. Plus they’ll see less customers buy in-app stuff.

“Success is not illegal.” Isn’t that the truth.If the ruling just involves adding external links in games, I’m ok with that.
if it involves allowing alternate pay systems inside ios, that is not good.

App Store monopoly lawsuit expands to 'Bitcoin Lottery,' others
Nonsense. If they lose, the plaintiffs should be billed $200 billion.Free speech doesn’t apply to Apple. They are not the gov nor do they hold a monopoly in the “App Store” market. -
