If the judge's ruling includes the concerns she expressed during the trial, apple and Epic Games may not be able to get what they want from the case, or even lose both < p > Yvonne Gonzalez Rogers, a US District judge, said she doubted whether Apple's app store would allow any "real competition", which is the core issue of the case. In addition, she questioned Epic Games' motives for suing apple, suggesting that it could help subvert the business model of Apple's app store and help the company transform from "a multi billion dollar company to a multi trillion dollar giant" < p > this leaves a big middle ground for judges to change the power structure of the $142 billion mobile app distribution market, allowing Epic Games and other app developers to take a bigger share of the revenue currently flowing to apple < p > the testimony in the trial shows that the risks faced by both companies are high, because the judges are weighing various options, from allowing the app store to run undisturbed to forcing it to thoroughly reform its policies and allow more external competition. Apple's blockbuster game fortress night, which came off the shelves in August, generated more than $5 billion in revenue for Epic Games last year. It is estimated that the app store brings apple more than $20 billion in revenue every year, with a profit margin of more than 75% < p > judge Rogers said Monday after the two companies filed their closing statements that she would make a ruling as soon as possible, but did not give a specific date. In addition to having a direct impact on the two companies involved, judge Rogers' ruling may also prompt the US Department of justice and other global regulators to take action to review Apple's power as a gatekeeper of the digital economy < p > here are four possible < a target = "_ blank" href=" https://news.163.com/news/search?keyword=%E5%88%A4%E5%86%B3%E7%BB%93%E6%9E%9C "> verdict < / a >: < / P > < p > the status quo will not change: the judge may dismiss all Epic Games' charges against apple and help the iPhone manufacturer win a landslide victory. This will not force a mandatory change in the app store, allowing apple to continue to require developers to distribute their software only through its app store, and forbid third-party in app purchases < p > adjust app store policy: the judge may ask apple to modify the rules to allow third-party app stores to be installed on IOS. She may also rule that apple must provide ongoing support for third-party app stores so they don't interrupt future software updates. The judge will decide whether the exemption from App store rules applies only to Epic Games or to all developers < p > radical change: the judge may find that Apple's app store does have anti competitive behavior and issue an injunction at the request of Epic Games to prevent it from operating as usual. In this case, the judge may rule that Apple will have to make a series of changes, including supporting third-party app download stores and allowing in app transactions through alternative payment systems < p > compromise: the judge may make a more subtle ruling, mainly retaining Apple's control over the app store and its in app purchasing system. But Apple may have to allow developers to add links in its app, which may be in the form of a button in the app, to direct users from the app store to online payment systems, where they can buy virtual goods at a lower price < p > legal experts believe that Apple has an advantage in the trial. But last Friday, in a sharp question from judge Rogers to Tim Cook, Apple's chief executive, it was uncertain whether the latter would win. Because the judge doubted some of Apple's claims, such as Apple's view that strict control over app censorship and marketing methods can bring greater benefits < p > judge Rogers hinted that she was seeking a middle ground around the idea that iPhone users should have the right to buy lower priced virtual goods and content directly from developers. David Kesselman, a Los Angeles antitrust lawyer who was not involved in the trial, said the judge's ruling "may not fully satisfy Epic Games' demands, but it can give it a partial victory." < p > no matter what kind of ruling judge Rogers makes, < a target = "_ blank" href=" https://news.163.com/news/search?keyword=%E4%B8%8A%E8%AF%89 "> appeal to a higher court is almost inevitable. During the trial, judge Rogers said she wanted to establish a clear record of all the evidence because she expected the losing party to appeal after the ruling was made. Kesselman said the judge "has a lot of power, but ultimately the case will be appealed to the Ninth Circuit Court of appeal."（ Small) < / P > < p > <-- EndFragment-->
