OK, if you disagree, let's compare how the iTunes-only viewing has limited Apple's market share in music sales so far. Not too much. Then let's check back in 6 months or a year to see if iTunes and the App Store have bombed. Doubtful.
If you oppose something (that's you're not even paying for), but it still ends up wildly successful, then the aspect of it that bothered you clearly doesn't bother too many people. You can settle for being a minority.
(note: this isn't Apple fanboyism. This is the same argument I would give to people who complain about Windows, oil companies, pharmaceuticals, Hollywood, etc. If you're a minority opinion, then you have to DEFEAT the thing you hate.)
- Tichy 18y agoI guess if Apple was a presidential candidate, they would be fighting nails and teeth for every single vote, instead of saying "we don't care about you". Yes, I don't have an iPod, but I am inclined to buy an iPhone. So in elections, I guess I would be a swing voter. Seeing nice apps in the store might just swing my vote to the right side (buy). Care or don't care - it is one customer more or less.
