The issue is Apples consumer products really do need a wider distribution than simple apple centred stores. So I expect some to simply be product stockist such as target etc, and more upmarket services run by apple direct.
As given the turnover requirements for a Apple retail store, they just don't suit certain market. THough I would say looking at the JB Hifi figures I think they would have grouped in all the additional accessories people buy for their apple products not made by Apple to get to 30%.
