There are probably partners who have significant reach, and would be interested in a revenue share with your platform, or maybe a white-labeling solution. HumbleBundle, or something along those lines comes to mind.

That's a good idea, I think partnerships are definitely the way to go, especially with content producers like HB. White-labeling is also very interesting, we know of a few really good examples of that in the mobile market. Probably something more towards the future though, right now we're focused on getting content!
Correct me if I'm wrong, but HB includes a lib of 50+ indie games with the Humble Choice subscription. Why should they split revenue with you as a competitor?

Yep, that's why we haven't approached them and have focused more on indie publishers and devs, although a partnership with them could be interesting
That HumbleBundle hasn't tried this already speaks volumes for the feasibility of it, IMO...
Why would they? They've got great things going on with the bundles and now HB choice/monthly. Same for Steam and other large storefronts.
