An Open Letter to Tim Cook Regarding the App Store...
High fee ??? You should do some research, before Apples App store the split was often 30 % / 70 %. With the store taking the 70 %.

Prior to the App Store, indie software developers using turnkey online solutions from eSellerate, Kagi and others were typically only paying around 10% - and this included all the VAT/TAX handling for the EU and different US states.

The 30%/70% was for other digital storefronts, not direct sales through your own store. Kagi and the like are more akin to payment processors.
