"Rebuffed"? I suspect it was more like "ignored." Because Apple won't negotiate on the rules. It's their playground, and the rules are posted plainly. So you submitted an app (or an update to one) with a feature not allowed by Apple and got rejected. Now, you remove the offending functionality and resubmit ... and they'll get to you when they're good-n-ready. And they'll take their dear sweet time because we can't have you overlooking the rules again (or trying to pull the wool over the eyes of the reviewer...) So why doesn't Microsoft just market the hell out of SkyDrive? "Use it. Love it. Sign up at skydrive.live.com. And now, access your SkyDrive subscription on your favorite mobile devices: Windows, Android and iOS." Don't try to sell SkyDrive on Apple's App Store, just provide "free access" to the subscription. Plenty other services do exactly this.
