Google Inc. is paying Apple Inc. a hefty fee to keep its search bar on the iPhone.Apple received $1 billion from its rival in 2014, according to a transcript of court proceedings from Oracle Corp.’s copyright lawsuit against Google. The search engine giant has an agreement with Apple that gives the iPhone maker a percentage of the revenue Google generates through the Apple device, an attorney for Oracle said at a Jan. 14 hearing in federal court.
That is just a crazy figure...
Good. I hate change as is, but I don't need my morning iPhone outine thrown out of waco anytime soon. But wow, a billion dollars? Sheesh.
