That is an interesting battle. For me it is valid that Apple and Google receive comission for the app sold, but inside the purchases made inside the app shouldn`t keep giving revenue to them. And if the result of this is Playstation having to allow other stores inside it or even more broad, that anyone can release their game or app and Sony can`t block it, so be it.

No. Fortnite is free to play. And the money it makes comes from mxt. 

You can't piggyback off a platform that a company spent billions and decades to build, use aid platform to reach n even wider audience, then now go onto cutting off the platform from making money from said game. 

What epic is doing here is vile.

Yes, poor Apple and its trillion dollar market cap, they spend billions developing iphone and don`t get enough profit...

What does Apple do to specifically help that game sell or the in-app purchase to happen? Even more when you can play forever without paying anything. Are you going to complain it is unfair that I don`t give money to f2p games? If apple wanted a charge for every game downloaded (I`m almost sure they get and that varies per size and then on updates, just look games they are under 100 Mb on the store, but then you download 2Gb when you load the game, updates are like 10Mb on the system but then 200Mb in game) that would be fine, it could be percentage or fixed or percentage with a minimum value. But to ask for continued revenue when they don`t really do anything for that isn`t right.

Your justification is just the same as government, they allow you to live and work so why shouldn`t they take money from it? After all they put a lot of money onto their own wages.

Epic isn`t vile, Apple abusing their very big marketshare and being sole provider and then asking for additional cut is vile, and you can bet they also ask for a cut from the in-app purchase of apps that you have to pay to buy.
