That's a little fuzzier, though. Steve said he's not trying to get a chunk of SaaS. So is Instapaper a content subscription or SaaS? Seems closer to the latter

That's a little fuzzier, though. Steve said he's not trying to get a chunk of SaaS. So is Instapaper a content subscription or SaaS? Seems closer to the latter to me, but definitely concede the point that this uncertainty is bad for the platform.
At the same time: Paying out $2 billion to devs and having 200 million credit card accounts means never having to say you're sorry.

- joebadmo 16y agoSo... he has altered the deal. I guess all we can do is pray that he doesn't alter it further? I agree with the GP: what bothers me most is the inconsistent, capricious nature of the judgments being handed down. I guess we'll see if any of that actually has an effect on the number of developers/quality of apps in the app store.
