I would be surprised if the thought of using in-app purchasing for subscriptions even moved their needle of interest at Netflix.

Again, if you're just providing a conduit for your subscription service, all this means is that you can't provide a direct call to action in your app.

They seem like the prototypical example of an company that couldn't care less about using the App Store as an app-based advertisement or purchasing platform.




My understanding of the new rule is if your app is used to consume content bought outside of the app, then your app must offer a way to purchase content/subscription through the app for the same price, with apple getting 30%.


Precisely. Netflix doesn't get a free pass.
