Apple has business reasons for their policies. Most people want to consume only and they are happy with what they get from the AppStore. Apple has its profit. Without profit, they would not do this.
Of course there are some geeks like us, who want more. We get the jailbreak. It's no big deal and it looks like it's ok with Apple too. I mean they are not really fighting much against it.
So, we have the choice.
I was never "finding new ways to break in" to my iphone, I just waited a few days for the jailbreak to be available. It's always coming, there is no such thing as an unbreakable system. And then I'm happily writing my apps in Java, because I feel like that.
I see no reason to panic about the iPad. It will be jailbroken. And then you do whatever you want if you feel like.
Or, you don't jailbreak, if all you want is to consume, there's nothing wrong about it.
If you realy have to materialize such an amount of money (because you are a bank, for example), I would guess gold is more convenient. It's fireproof, proven to be always convertible (not that the USA could easily go to bankrupt, but still), and I _guess_ it even takes up less space.
Correct me if I'm wrong.
If you make a photo of my wife and then destroy the picture, I did not lost anything.
If you sell it to a magazine, I want some money also.
There is a big difference between stealing a physical object or creating an unathorized photo, and making a copy of a digital product.
The last one does not make any harm to that digital thing.
If the violator made profit, that could have went to the copyright holder. So there is a potential loss.
On the other hand, if there was no profit, it is not missing from the copyright holder either.
And there are hundreds of intelligent people making comments here and not many reach this conclusion that the whole case is _ridiculous_.
