SpamSandwich said: He’s a Republican Senator. Also, this is why corporations exist. So the corporation is responsible, not just the CEO. The best comment that I have read on this all day.

SIgh. Apple had 35% market share in tablets. Samsung generally has 10%-15% share. Samsung's cheapest tablet is $150 and their most expensive is $750. For the record, Amazon consistently has a much lower market share than Samsung - as low as 3% - wit…

How on earth was Vudu or anyone else "stealing" from iTunes? Isn't anyone on here aware that Apple was far from the first company to sell digital downloads of music, books and movies? Apple didn't even invent the tech for iTunes ... they bought it (…

Kind of a silly "comparison." If you like Android and need a secondary or cheaper device, get a Motorola or Nokia (not a Samsung which will only get one update). If you like iOS and need a secondary or cheaper device this is as good an option as the…
