Allowing 3rd party payments in apps is a net negative for consumers IMO. The current way of paying for in-app content is extraordinarily easy and privacy-preserving. Subscriptions are listed in one spot and can easily be cancelled from there.

Sure the fee is a bummer, but that’s not my problem as a consumer. If it makes the subscription more expensive I’ll just buy it on their website.

But I feel this change will produce all sorts of awful web-hybrid user experiences.
