Google wanted to lick Apple’s cookie.
Google Play boss Jamie Rosenberg, May 28th, 2016:
We’re starting to hear an escalation of the rumors that Apple will be changing its revshare on subscriptions to 85/15, potentially as early as WWDC (which is the week of 6/10).
Later in the email:
It’s a scramble but I think we need to assume the rumor is true and plan accordingly. If we can move quickly, we have a good opportunity to “lick the cookie” and preempt Apple’s announcement.
Apple did go ahead with the announcement, but Google did not lick the cookie.
(It shows the jury more of Google’s rev share changes predate the Epic lawsuit, though.)
