"The Google Play store is more transparent than the iOS App Store is for this title regarding what the app can access." True and misleading. For Android you need to live with the access to the data an app has. Its either install or don't install. On iOS the user controls what access an app may have.

iTunes movies has been falling behind so bad lately it's sad.

Apple skipped 3D movies, will they do the same for 4K?
Every other service already offers 4K and many Blu Ray movies offer a 4K movie code for Ultraviolet.

With Apples money every theatre release should come with exclusives. No excuse.

iTunes movies and shows need a complete revamp. I'd like to see "Movies" a 5k standard for Apple devices that down converts depending on what device you're using.

Nobody cares about 3D. 
Nobody cares about 4k.
Just stop.
Okay maybe 1% of the population cares about 3D and 4k.

Not worth Apple's time to go through all that trouble.

Do you know how much bandwidth you need to stream true 4k movies? I'm not talking about fake 4k crap that Netflix is spewing out (which is worse than Bluray quality). Give me a break.

Except there were a lot of people that in theory should have upgraded to the 6S but didn't. I remember on several conference calls Tim Cook mentioned that something like 30% of the install base had an iPhone 6. So either the overall phone size is too big for some or the new features weren't enough to get people to upgrade, or it could be a combination of both. Anyway if Apple does remove the headphone jack Phil better have a compelling reason why. So far I haven't come across one.

Moving to Lightning-only isn't just for better sound, although the vast majority of bloggers tend to focus on this specific point. Think on-ear biometrics.

"Apple’s U.S. Patent No. 8,655,004: “Sports monitoring system for headphones, earbuds and/or headsets.”"

With wearables about to become a major category in the Apple ecosystem, this is bigger than just improved sound.
