Apple Reduces App Store Fees for Small Developers Amid Antitrust Scrutiny

Apple, facing growing antitrust scrutiny over what it charges other companies for access to its App Store, said that it would cut in half the fee it took from the smallest app developers. Developers that brought in $1 million or less from their apps in the previous year will pay a 15 percent commission on those app sales starting next year, down from 30 percent, the company said.
