An Open Letter to Tim Cook Regarding the App Store...
Maybe Apple views the revenue split as a desirable barrier to entry for the sake of quality control?

The barrier to entry is the annual $100 developer fee, not the percentage of sales. I honestly wouldn't mind this fee being much much higher if the eliminated a lot of the crummy apps from the store.

$499 Mac Mini is good enough for writing apps.
