I'll put it on the first level , because most Apple defenders say exactly same thing: "Why should Apple who created the iPhone sell it like it prefers to? If you don't like it buy another phone". In fact, there was a business in US that did just that. Hollywood's Studio System. Movie studios were vertically integrated with theater chains, and you could only see Paramount or MGM movies in the theaters that that owned. And you know what? Customers were really unhappy, because studios made all kinds of bad tricks like forcing to buy a week pass to see just one movie. Of course, you could refuse to watch other 15 crap movies that were bundled with High Noon, or, like Apple defenders here say, go watch some other movie. I imagined some arguments that some HN commenters could make: "It's not a monopoly if you can watch other movies in other theaters" "Paramount movie chain is just 15% of total number of theaters" "They made this movie and they should decide how you are allowed to see it" It all ended with an court decision [1] that ended this monopoly abuse.
