"However, Apple does require that if a publisher chooses to sell a digital subscription separately outside of the app, that same subscription offer must be made available, at the same price or less, to customers who wish to subscribe from within the app." Does this mean that, for example, the Wall Street Journal app MUST allow users to subscribe from within the app? I'd understand if they said that in-app subscriptions could not be more expensive then outside-app subscriptions, but this seems draconian. "In addition, publishers may no longer provide links in their apps (to a web site, for example) which allow the customer to purchase content or subscriptions outside of the app." So you're not allowed to mention in the app that there's another way to subscribe? And since they slipped the word "content" in there (in the rest of the press release, they only mention subscriptions), does this include the Kindle app and other any e-commerce-related app?
