So they're "welcome" to be hosted on the extremely crappy Windows store, which I won't even use because of being unable to do anything when it randomly just stopped working and wouldn't even open, all while paying 12% of their revenues, vs just continuing to use their own stores that are significantly more popular and developed and allows them to keep all the revenue for themselves. Okay. MS is basically asking them to pay MS for the privilege of helping MS gain users in their store. So typical of them, trying everything but actually improving their products and services to gain users.

Sure, MSFT. Put your money where your mouth is. Welcome on the Xbox, payment systems and all (as you proudly proclaim for your PC). C'mon. We'll see where your loyalties really lie.

I believe the goal is more about populating the ghost town that is the Microsoft store.

This is just Microsoft's way to try closing down the Windows ecossystem, to make it more along the lines of Android and iOS. I hope it fails.
