The problem with allowing outside payment methods is that now a company can put up a major app for free in the store and allow Apple to eat the infrastructure costs. The developer of that app then allows payments/subscriptions to be made without going through Apple. Who's paying for the infrastructure of that app within Apple's system?
Basically it means Apple is supposed to give developers a free ride and get nothing in return.
I'm not saying the way it is now is "right", but Apple being expected to host/distribute an app that Apple didn't develop for free is nothing more than being an entitled, whiny chump.
