Mail of Schiller to Job and Eddy Cue (head of service) talks about reducing the App Store commission charged by developers from 30% to 20%.
Schiller asks if Apple can continue with “70/30 split” forever by post.
Split refers to a cost of 30% subject to Apple developer fees for paid applications, purchases are carried out in the application along with subscriptions.
