Apple sell products and they sell content. I couldn't imagine them running a free service.

    You buy iCloud, just as part of the purchase price of Apple hardware/software.

    > iCloud. ICloud sells devices—it's a tech spec, in a way. It's beneficial to nearly all of their users (invisible backups, Find My iPhone/iPad/Mac, etc). Twitter, not so much.

  And they suck at advertising, and they suck at web services. Why go in deeper? The thing Twitter has that could be of value is a big library of users with accounts, but Apple already has that. iTunes accounts are (I think) roughly the same size as Twitter, plus all accounts have some payment mechanism on file.
