The user. If I like netflix and want to pay outside of iOS I should be able to manage that without apple taking a cut.
Managing payment outside of a closed system makes so much more sense.
Apple losing all funding to operate the app store is the least of all issues. They can shutdown the store and thirdparty stores would take over. If they can't afford the app they probably won't sell many phones. Perhaps taking some of the phone profits to fund the app store would make business sense.
