why would each of these companies bother creating a new store that requires eng resources, server costs, maintenance, etc. if the total cost was less than Apple's unreasonable fee? doesn't it simply mean that these companies perceive the value of Apple's App Store to be less than the cost?

Why does Facebook want to know what you had for breakfast and mad that Apple is wanting to limit their access to data and share that they are collecting that information?

I'm sure every company already has infrastructure for distributing digital resources over the internet, nothing more is needed unless someone builds a toll road into their platform.

Sure, but I the consumer could give a rats ass about how they perceive the value of the app store.
