The real purpose of this may be to chase products that are competitive to Apple's offerings off the iOS platform.
Apple bought Lala last year. The companies most impacted by the new subscription rules are subscription based streaming media products (Pandora, Netflix, Rhapsody...). There simply is not 30% profit margin in these business, they do not make enough money to cover their expenses AND pay Apple. They cannot stay on iOS, the bigger they get the greater their losses will be. When Apple relaunches Lala it will compete directly with these media streamers. -- ========================================== er...@sisyph.us http://sisyph.us (530) 213-ERIK http://twitter.com/eriks (530) 213-3745 http://www.linkedin.com/in/erikschwartz ========================================== _______________________________________________ use-livecode mailing list use-livecode@lists.runrev.com Please visit this url to subscribe, unsubscribe and manage your subscription preferences: http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-livecode
