Epic, the developer of the smash hit arena shooter Fortnite, has reignited an argument with Google over the revenue share practices of the Play Store. Epic is reportedly hoping to bring Fortnite to the Play Store but has requested an exemption from the current 70/30 revenue split all other app developers are subject to on the Play Store. Google has offered a flat "No" in response.

30% is a huge cut for doing close to nothing, but I don't see Google nor Apple doing anything about it anytime soon.
At least Google have been known to negotiate with some. Apple are even more stubborn about it

I agree, but I was somehow expecting that Google asked for a smaller cut, no such case apparently.
