And if your unlisted app does in-app purchases, you still have to pay 30%, right? Apple used to justify that cut by saying "we deserve it for bringing all these users to your app via the app store catalog", but that's not a valid claim for unlisted apps.
Apple must be forced to allow installing iOS apps from arbitrary sources, signed with arbitrary keys. This is the only way. Or are they afraid that if they do allow that, then the app store would have to truly compete with "just host a self-signed .ipa on your own server" on its own merits?
