tenly said: rogifan_old said: Not a good excuse. There's a lot of things Apple is doing now that it's never done before. Why wait for someone to file a class action lawsuit? It's not an excuse - it's more of a reason. One of Appl…

The whole software model has been decimated by the advent of the App Store. If software wasn't valued before, it certainly isn't valued now. People whinge about paying 99 cents for an app. 99 cents. Unreal.It may not have been Apple's intention but …
