Way cool a thread where I can dish out all my hatred for Apple! Seriously, Apple has been getting lots of negative publicity recently, just like former brother in arm Google. Not good.

One important comment. Those who say that the Feds investigating Apple are overstepping business, please remember that robber barons have always been detrimental to competition. Apple is the robber baron here, and developers are the mom and pop shops. Our economy, competition and innovation does much better when there's many mom and pops succeeding and driving the economy then when there's one robber baron like Apple. When one player threaten the system and forces a monopoly and an oligopoly, it is the duty of the government to intervene and allow the market to be competitive once again. Without that competition, we all lose in the end.

That's for the misguided libertarians who forget what's really at stake here.
