"That's called good business."
^ But good business, if it's taken to its absolute extreme - is sometimes bad for the consumer. In the case of Apple's closed platform .. their 'good business' sense, leads to lack of freedom for us.
Our lack of freedom might be a minor inconvenience now - BUT, in the future - when this computing paradigm is copied by other large corporations - it might become the standard for all computing devices. This would be an absolutely awful thing, imo.

- Wow. You just don't get it. It's not illegal to open an App store online. Nobody is being stopped from doing the same.monospaced
