    Anonymous, 11 Jan 202290M "lossless songs" but no apple products to act... moreall apple dongles, 3.5 mm jack of older apple products, even bluetooth airpod lineup range in frequency up to 24 bit 48khz,so this is lossless audio, better than cd because cd is 16 bit 44khz, so basiacly people don't understand what lossless means and what it represents and just like you they are mocking what they actualy don't really understand.
    lossless can go up to 32 bit 192 khz, but no windows, apple, not even android products can give you 192 khz studio mastering quality. Even fans of andoid should know that the android os resamples every audio in 44 or 48 khz but nothing goes higher. If you want 192 khz you should buy your personal audio gear not just bashing one or other company, in the end they are all the same.

      Apple has the right to charge even 90% of the money spent by users. They already have bloatware and ads cooked into iOS. If anyone has a problem then they can stop developing or using Apple products.

                OfficialTRider, 12 Jan 2022So Apple earned $85.71 Billion from apps and gave only $60 ... moreWhy not go to 1% while we're at it. It'll still make them 1 BILLION. You people are funny.

                  OfficialTRider, 12 Jan 2022So Apple earned $85.71 Billion from apps and gave only $60 ... moreDude, seriously?? You should make your own app store and tried to survive for a year. I would really love to see what's you going to eat for a year so 🤦🏻‍♂️

                    So Apple earned $85.71 Billion from apps and gave only $60 Billions to dev. While keeping $25.71 Billion to itself (in the name of maintaining the app store). Epic was right. Companies cut should be in the range of 12 to 15% not 30%. 12% at the lower end would still fetch Apple $10.28 Billion while 15% would fetch $12.85 Billion.

                      Users spend $180b in apps and Apple paid only $60b to developers.

                        Doing numbers like crazy
