Apple lets developers keep 70% of their revenue. Should developers just jack up their subscription rates?

Or are artists less deserving of that 30% than developers?

What should the platform that has to provide the bandwidth, apps for phones, cars, smart devices(echo), tracking snd paying out the artist earnings, etc have a right to? They are losing money with 30% and no streamer has made money.

There are products that compete with spotify. The app store has none.
