Over what time period? Is that a top line of 30% of $2Bn over 10-12 quarters? That is a microscopic amount of money for HP.

As I understood, thats since the beginning. So basically nothing compared to HP or even Apple

Apple has also said that they operate close to breakeven on iTunes / the App store. See http://allthingsd.com/20100225/apple-billions-of-songs-billi...

Also, that cut is revenue, not profit.
