I can agree with you, as long as Apple allows app developers to clearly spell out that the cost is higher because of the Apple tax and that they have the choice to sign up online if they choose.

Yes, app developers should be able to say that (and to say “pay on our website”). The gag order on app developers is wrong and should be illegal.

It’s not a tax. It’s just margins. I’m sure any retailer would balk at having to list that.

It’s pretty well known that Costco margins are 10%. Do we call that a tax too?
