> Ehm , no Google doesn't distribute it "for free" as long as it asks you a percentage of your revenues.

Google pays for the servers, for the storage, for the data centre, for the electricity, for the bandwidth and you want them to collect your revenue and _not_ take a cut ?

You are not forced by Google to go through someone else. You can do it all yourself:

Many have taken issue with MS control, some with Apple, but Google applies much less control, it is just your misrepresentation (alternate facts) that you are arguing against.
