Re: Epic Greed

Yeah, this was an interesting ruling because both parties we pushing largely indefensible positions. It was rich to hear the judge rake Epic over the coals for failing to make a case the the judge implied could have been made, and their all or nothing attack on Apple's 30% cut. Let me use your infrastructure for free and keep all of the profits isn't a sound or defensible position, and the Judge as much as said that they could have succeeded if they had stuck to the tack that 30% is insane and unjustifiable.

Hopefully having been given the boot, someone other than Epic will make and prevail on the stronger argument in a future case.
