Other than government intervention, what incentive does Apple have to lower their fees, particularly as they intend for "services" to be an increased money maker going forward?
Perhaps more importantly, why should consumers be subject to Apple's good will? If consumers were able to acquire software from other sources, the market would naturally determine how much of a cut Apple actually deserves.
