Why bring up some unrelated literature?

You fools, don't you realize Steve Jobs himself was the elite apple assassin?
If he was, he wasn't very good. His throwing stars were confiscated by the Japanese.
As a consumer, no. A significant portion of the value of a textbook, to me, is that I can keep it for life and use it as a reference, let other people borrow it, and, heck, pass it on to the next generation. (Certainly, when I was young, I spent a lot of time with my Dad's old text books.)
Does your intended use still make you a "consumer" in the sense of one who uses & discards? If not, then you're not Apple's target.
Then how, exactly, is anyone supposed to be able to ever watch?
Isn't the whole point of DRM to prevent you from watching anything?
This actually did amuse me. Apparently tapping icons on a phone screen isn't a natural progression from clicking icons on a computer screen, which as you point out Apple didn't come up with in the first place.
If tapping icons on a touchscreen is a natural progression from the desktop, why did Apple have to re-invent the touchscreen to make it happen? Before the iPhone first hit the market, touchscreens were a relic.
Get some perspective. Take a deep breath and repeat: we're discussing a preference for certain technical solution, not a religion.
Not a religion? Some might disagree.
