Google is trying to drum up publishers’ support for a new Google-operated digital newsstand for users of devices that run its Android software. Google has told publishers it would take a smaller slice on any sales they make of Android apps than the 30% cut Apple typically takes on iTunes sales. Google has also proposed giving publishers certain personal data about app buyers to help with marketing related products or services.

  2. Well. Lets see.

    Would I prefer 70% of $10,000 ?

    or 95% of $2,500 ?

    Google will need to set their cut pretty low. Though it would indeed be nice to know who is buying your content. This is an area where Apple is exposed.
