Mac App Store Unanswered Questions

Manton Reece:

It’s not just review times, or e-mails that go into the void, unanswered for days or weeks or ever. It’s that Apple isn’t able to communicate about the fundamental issues that will make or break businesses.

No answers before the store opened, and now developers have even more questions and Apple is still in a communication blackout. The main value of Apple’s 30% cut is access to a larger market, but it still doesn’t look good that companies such as PayPal, eSellerate, and E-junkie charge much less and provide great service. I can e-mail or call those companies and get answers right away.
