Anyway, you are being pedantic. Clearly there are risks and inconveniences associated with running a jailbroken phone. I'm guessing once you restore your device to the factory defaults you will no longer be able to run all those great jailbreak-only apps you bought, and you'll have to go reinstall them again later after you re-install the jailbreak patch. If Apple hasn't figured out a way to disable jailbreaking altogether, that is. Hardly a level playing field with apps from iTunes.
Thinking about it, part of the reason it annoys me is because Microsoft was declared a monopolist simply for including a browser with their operating system. This basically hurt no one except other browser makers. So if you're going to call that anti-competitive then you've got to call Apple's cornering the market on the sale of all types of apps to be anti-competitive too. But I honestly don't really think Microsoft deserved to be penalized for trying to give their users a better experience than they would have with a browser-less OS. Like the Apple apologists here are saying, if the market didn't like what Microsoft was doing, they could have bought Macs or used Linux instead.
so why aren't people complaining about Whole Foods' limited selection and arbitrary standards?
Gee, maybe it's because there are other stores where we can buy food?
The major difference between bonds and bond traders is that the bonds will eventually mature.
