It's their company. They can do whatever they want. If you don't like it, that's great. Dissenting opinions are a foundation of this great country. But Apple also deserves the right to not care what you think, and not care if you go somewhere else. The majority of consumers have no problem with it.
Too bad Bill Gates isn't looking for a lawyer or advocate now. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_States_v._Microsoft http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_States_v._Microsoft
- gavinlynch 14y agoAre you suggesting Apple is a monopoly?
- onetimeuse001 14y agoNo, not yet (~30% share) but what you said it's not true. They cannot do "whatever they want." Eventually the Feds will start asking questions.
- gavinlynch 14y agoWhat kinds of questions will Federal Agents be asking Apple? What kinds of illegal activity are you insinuating Apple has perpetrated? (edit: Disclaimer I previously assumed was unnecessary: Apple can't "do whatever they want", you are correct. For instance, if Tim Cook killed a hooker, that would be bad.)

- bugmenot 14y agoApple doesn't have a monopoly or anywhere close to it.
