Small correction: Apple was getting 15% from Spotify, not 30%.

Yes, but a sweetheart deal to avoid a legal battle for the greater good with the few entities that have sufficient mass to potentially win at court is a scummy thing in its own right

There was no sweetheart deal. Spotify pays Apple 0% because they offer no in-app subscriptions, and any developer with long term subscribers gets 15% pricing.
