Oh, I definitely got the gist this time.

Two impressive questions from Epic attorney Moskowitz:

“During that time the App Store was charging this lower fee and Google wasn’t, you’re not aware of a single developer that pulled out of the Play Store because of this differential pricing?”

And, about the “loophole” where some developers were able to pay 0 percent because they hadn’t adopted Google Play Billing: “Are you aware of any developer that abandoned iOS and came over to Android exclusively?”

He wasn’t aware of either. Epic’s implication is that Google didn’t truly compete with Apple on app store pricing. (Google, mind you, often argues it competes for consumer purchases of phones instead.)
