Oooooh “profitshare”. That made up phrase Apple users created to brag about how much money Apple makes from their mark up.

Profit share is not something Apple users made up. . . it's something Economists created long before Apple even existed and you show you are a complete ignoramus trying to claim it was created as something special by "Apple users to brag about how much makes from the mark up," when it is what every company aspires to achieve.

“Profit share is not something Apple users made up. . . “

It absolutely was something they embraced, that’s for sure.

Before Apple fans bragged about it, they used the old fashioned “market share” metric back when iPhone were out-selling everyone else.

Once android started eating into that, and then passed them, all of a sudden they switched to talking about the amont of profit Apple makes off of each sale, because they needed something to “prove” Apple was better still.

Basically bragging that they get fleeced better. God only knows why they think that is something to brag about.
