Well, there was the iPod accessory rings to jump through, but that’s fairly standard.
What’s seen as evil here is really a preference for the user over the content provider, and it’s the content providers who are whining about not getting everything their way.
You never hear any users complaining about subscription plans not automatically giving away their information.
- eavc 16y agoHow is effectively booting popular services from their devices in the interest of their customers?
- sudont 16y agoDon't try and sell it like that. The "services" you obliquely reference (name one) are most likely intended be used at the OS level, which is against the way the platform is built. The entire model of iOS is a node that downloads from several sources, which 3-rd party content providers are calling foul about. The platform is effectively binary: it either works or it doesnt, out of the box. There aren't any drivers or codecs to install. If you don't like it, build your service for some other platform. I hear there's one that's got more marketshare.
