Given your first post: > ...buying the iPhone comes with access to apps through the the App Store, not any software that you like. That's clear to almost everyone I would think.... > It's a design and pricing choice. And you buy in or you don't. This follow up: > ...whether that's fact or supported by our current laws is not at all certain Appears to at least be an explicit moving of the goal posts, if not claiming advantage from both sides of the argument. Is it clear that the relationship is a legally enforced 'take it or leave it', or isn't it?

I don't know what argument you're talking about. I'm trying to be charitable to the person above and not outright say that "no, you don't get to run whatever software he likes on a phone he bought". He's on the losing side, but maybe laws in the future will change. Right now, it's totally within a company's rights (and a consumer's rights) to review the terms of a sale of a product/service, and agree to them or not.
