Why Are Vendors Annoyed by this IAP Thing?
- ebtalley 16y agowhats the deal with all the dashes in the content? made it nigh unreadable.
- ZeroGravitas 16y agoLooks like some kind of javascript based justification routine. It kicks in shortly after page load. I read the whole thing and didn't notice there was dashes till you pointed it out. Maybe it's broken on your system in some way? Or am I just more used to seeing these in print, for whatever reason, that I no longer even notice them.
- dfreidin 16y agoIt might be a browser thing, but on my system it's way more than just for justification at the end of a line. For example, here's how the first half sentence looks to me: I was asked in a com-ment to an-oth-er post to ex-plain why my re-ac-tion to IAP isn’t just in-dica-tive of greed on the part of pub-lish-ers... I just checked my other browsers, and Firefox is the only one I'd want to read this in. Chrome has a problem with whatever is putting in the hyphens, and IE is using some difficult-to-read script font.

- jarin 16y agoIt works fine on Chrome 9 for Mac.
- Vivtek 16y agoThe bug report for Chrome says it's because the site is optimizing for legibility, which is really ironic.
- zaphar 16y agoApple obviously doesn't look at the AppStore as a MarketPlace. They view it purely as a convenience value add for the IOs. Every move they make indicates that they don't mind people filling holes in their product offerings just so long as they aren't attempting to fill that hole themselves. If you base your business on the iOS platform then you only have a business for as long as Apple doesn't want that business for itself.
