Episode notes

Ike: It's very hard to create that arbitrary distinction between inapt purchase s, and inapt purchasers for digit or goods. I could see a world in which if you let developers just send people out to a web view, they would actually cut off inapt purchases from the second category. Ike: Android is different in that they do charge 30 %, but they let you kick out to aweb page if you prefer.

Exponent is back, kind of.

Ben and James talk about Apple’s case in front of the Supreme Court, and debate whether the company is acting anti-competitively with its App Store policies.
