definitely helped. MS put a lot of effort into building a slick YouTube app and Google changed the T&Cs the week after it launched or something. Basically issued a takedown of the MS app because it didn't conform to the new standard they'd just introduced. I believe it was that third party apps had to allow ads, even though the iOS and Android apps did not.

- roryisok 9y agohave you got a link to the original story? I really thought they were following the T&Cs and then those T&Cs were changed within days
