  • Netflix kills in-app subscription option for iPhone & iPad users

    Makes sense. Especially now that Apple will become a competitior. And anyone who says Apple deserves a cut of Netflix subscriptions then must also believe Apple deserves a cut of every Uber and Lyft ride.
    Audio and Video services are not the same as Taxi services.
    Should Apple create, maintain and support iTunes and just allow third party music services to just come for the ride?
    Will Netflix allow pornographic video vendors to offer their videos on their Netflix platform?  Netflix does not create it or host it either.


    What does Netflix have to do with iTunes? Anyway I’d argue Uber and Lyft owe their success to the smartphone/mobile platforms more than Netflix does.

    Apple should start charging companies like Netflix, that charge customers but give nothing back to Apple, for making their services available through the AppStore. 
    They do "give back" to Apple since they offer a service that Apple users want. How is it so different from Apple hosting other "free apps" that users find valuable, stuff like Dropbox or Adobe Reader or Lastpass, that help keep Apple users happy in the ecosystem?

    Pretty sure you wouldn't want Netflix mobile as an Android exclusive. it wouldn't reflect well on the platform would it? 
    And if Netflix should be giving a cut to Apple then surely Uber and Lyft should too. Heck Eddy Cue even said Uber wouldn’t exist if not for the iPhone. I don’t think the same can be said for Netflix. I watch Netflix on my smart TV which has nothing to do with Apple.

    Don't bite the Apple that feeds you.

    This may be an early move is desperation due to Apples coming service.

    I hope Apples service dominates like everything else Apple does. Couldn't care if Netflix became the next Nokia.
    So you want Netflix to fail because they don’t want to give Apple 30/15% cut? How is that good for anybody?
    Yes I do.

    Do you think Walmart does not deserve a cut of everything they offer?

    If I were Apple I'd kick them off my platform.
    So what you’re saying is Apple shouldn’t offer free apps. OK but that would be terrible for the AppStore.
