And if there were no App Store at all would Apple have been obligated to allow one? Or any third party software? That seems to be the argument being made. Frankly, if it's between opening up iOS to all software or no third-party software at all, I'd take the latter. That's the peace of mind I wanted when I bought my iOS item. Having a singular, curated App Store is the next best thing for that kind of platform. There are other platforms available for other designs and purposes.
