Jobs cited that same blog post here -> http://www.taoeffect.com/blog/20…--
No matter how clever Steve's rhetoric - he's trying to restrict freedom and moderate the behaviour of developers.
If Steve Jobs was really worried about quality, he could examine the end product and make a judgement based on the final quality of each app in question.
This is a strategic business decision and he's treating developers like pawns. Potentially this move has the ability to stifle innovation.

- Bullshit.********
- The man is behaving like a socialist dictator.********
