I'm not sure why you are being downvoted. The legalistic interpretation is that there is no difference between Xbox and iOS except success – what laws or principles already exist to distinguish between them? Therefore your argument is invalid. Perhaps this is why. But I don't want to play that game. I just know that I want my primary computing platform and a major computing platform in my society to be open and not put a high tax on all economic activity – this seems important. But I do not particularly care if a games console I use does or not. Someone else can figure out the laws and fine distinctions. EDIT: The Xbox can be used to watch TV and browse the web, so it is also "general purpose" by a strict definition.
