Contrary to what one might imagine, if Apple decided today to stop any service from Google, it would be in a position of loss of revenue equal to four times what it generated for the devices using its platform Android.

Thus, according 9t05mac.com, the features of the Android platform would have generated an average of $ 550 million during the period 2008 to 2011, while at the same time, Google’s services such as Apple for service maps, search engine or YouTube (by example) would have cost four times. This is also the principal policy of Google smartphones to designers. The Android platform is their free, but instead they are forced to use these Google services by buying the necessary packages. This should enable them to maximize Android.

This implies of course that if Apple decided today to stop using Google’s services, it would lose a lot. This is also a strategy initiated by Apple by buying the firm in particular C3 3D design technology last year. In consequence, it follows that maps services deployed in the iPhoto application are no longer of Google Maps, hence the lack of quality. Hopefully Google will cushion the blow in the worst case.
