    That would depend on the contract they signed with their publisher. Sure, some contracts may be like you said, but that can be taken up with them. That argument (which you provided without context) is just you trying to provide cover for marketplaces taking a larger cut and it’s bullshit.

      It’s not a larger cut, it’s the industry-standard cut.

        The “industry standard” is made up and can change. There isn’t some dictated industry standard.
