@mjtsai Speaking of using subscriptions to generate income from apps, what do you think about this idea?https://medium.com/@danimal99/an-idea-for-the-consumer-app-store-ca241479f417 …

@danimal99 Hard to predict the consequences, but my gut feeling is that I don’t like that.
Dan Murrell ‏@danimal99 Apr 8

@mjtsai fair enough, thanks for the feedback! Trying to think through this problem of millions of users but few devs have a steady income

@danimal99 Hard problem, and good to throw ideas out there. My reaction based on thinking through a few test cases and comparing with music.
Dan Murrell ‏@danimal99 Apr 8

@mjtsai Apple Music what I compared to as well, with difference that Apple has a direct relationship to devs but go through Labels w/music
Michael Tsai ‏@mjtsai Apr 8

@danimal99 Do you think Apple Music is a success for smaller musicians?
Dan Murrell ‏@danimal99 Apr 8

@mjtsai prolly not for per play royalties but my proposal shares all sub revenue with all devs at that price point instead
