I haven't ready the official document from Apple about how exactly a
subscription is defined, but I have many apps that I regularly use
that access  subscription services.  Including: Safari Books, Netflix,
Hulu, Rhapsody, Audible, Evernote, Toodledo, Xmarks, Lastpass,
Dropbox, and Xfinity(Comcast), etc.

Do these new rules mean for example that any person should be able to
subscribe to Comcast content via their iOS device?  Given that a
Comcast subscription is about $100/month with all the premium
channels, does this now somehow mean that if a new person subscribed
via the iOS that Apple would get $34 cut?

As a consumer I am going to be seriously upset at Apple, if all those
services bump their prices up 30% or choose to remove their apps.
