Larger companies would be a lot more. 1 entity, which could very well have been just one person, was paid $530 million by Apple. It’s just ridiculous. Edited January 21, 20233 yr by GoranM

That sum is peanuts to such a big company and is probably easily tax-returnable as well.

Using Apple own internal legal department probably would have cost far more so they went to the $300K route.

He's more of a forward thinker in that regard. Hence his enthusiasm for the Alia 250. Friendly reminder: WHITELIST AVSIM IN YOUR AD-BLOCKER.
