Boz, the dudes sold books on iOS via in-app purchases. they can still do it. Apple isn't saying you can't sell books, they're saying you have to sell them via Book Store.
What is wrong about that?
If they didn't protect themselves, everyone would put apps for free and charge users via in-app for everything else, and Apple, who built the platform, built the hardware, maintain everything rolling smoothly, would receive shit.As you say, Apple and Google businesses are very different. Google doesn't give a shit about apps or stores, they're init for the ads. Their way permits them to get their business in that direction, Apple's doesn't. Why would they open hand of their revenue?
It's like babling about why google doesn't open source it's search algorithms...
