Many good points. Think you're off base in your description of voice assistants and the importance of Siri in Apple's near and longer term future. First, you're correct about Google, Amazon, etc., in not "selling" products, and yes, surveys show o…

Please correct your use of Spotify as an example of a company that has raised its prices to compensate for the commission. Spotify charges the exact same price if you sign up via their web site or the Apple store. Indeed, it is an example of the o…

There weren't any "hints" that Apple was increasing its reliance on AWS. Just the usual horrible state of "journalism" where someone reports an unverified fact and then uninformed bloggers, analysts, etc., speculate as though they were reporting fa…
