So you are willing to have a worse experience and pay more for it for some ideology that ends up failing in the end anyway? Who are you arguing is more practical here? :) Personally I think ideology must always bend to practicality or you end up with some really ridiculous results. I personally think Jobs wants to make the experience for the user the best possible. Not because he is benevolent, but rather because he is worried about what people will say about things he made. And in his case that takes priority over any open ideology that will actually result in a worse experience (that people will associate with him/Apple).
