I remember Diablo 2 was hybrid. So was Warcraft 3. I can't remember if Warcraft 2 was or not, but at some point, making their release discs Mac/PC hybrid became standard policy with Blizzard, and there were a few other companies doing hybrid releases around that time.
I'm really going to need a link before I believe that Apple takes royalties on any software sold on the Mac platform. I've never seen this suggested anywhere else before, and I've tried to find any evidence of it with Google and come up empty.
