Funny thing is, Apple doesn't pay a dime for product placement.

    Apple's just that kind of company. For some reason, they don't seem to need to advertise their products. Not sure why that is ... Sent from my iPhone

  Which probably makes it improper to call it "product placement".

  They pay for placement with gratis or discounted hardware, not with dimes. A long, long time ago, I did data entry for a local newspaper of campaign contributions records. At that time, I learned what an "in-kind" contribution was. This was when someone would, for instance, provide food for a campaign event. The candidate who benefited was required to report the dollar amount of that food as an in-kind contribution. Payment in kind is another term for barter. The reporting requirement is so that public political campaigns could not hide sources of support by failing to report barter-like transactions. And you shouldn't mislead people by saying Apple does not pay for product placement. It does pay. It pays via barter, rather than with cash, but it pays.
