In fact, in 2008 many people liked 30%. Especially those who used to pay ~50% for getting into a mobile carrier store.

As someone who graduated from college in 2008 let me tell you that 30% sounded basically like highway robbery to me and soured me on Apple for a lot of years. I refused to buy anything Apple related because I viewed (and still do) that 30% as abusive.

Maybe folks in industry saw it differently but I definitely beg to differ.
