Spotify is saying the cut should be 0% for Apple?

The discussion hasn't been framed around what the percentage should be.

It's been that Spotify disagrees with the entire model.

I wasn’t seriously asking you. Obviously they don’t expect to completely bypass paying Apple anything. Making extreme counter points doesn’t help these debates.

Spotify complaining about a “mandatory 30% tax” doesn’t mean they want zero tax. The people who dismiss questioning heavily centralized systems as only wanting anarchy are being purposefully misleading. Just like every other time that happens.
