Exploitative and bullying meets unstoppable and opportunistic. This isn't all that interesting.

As the Services continues to grow and sales revenue plateaus, this move makes perfect sense. This is Apple's version of 'customer friendly, good enough', and I'm sure will rake in money for Apple!

In other news, the consortium of financial services which demonstrate a world-leading exploitative  business model, today threw a collective tantrum in an effort to profit at Apple's expense. 

Noting that Apple is the only company in two decades to successfully introduce and maintain a contactless payment platform in a wide swath of countries, the You-beaut banks of Ozzieland insisted on free access to Apple Pay. For free. 

Realising they were in thin ice, the group, repeatedly accused of lying and extortion, made a bland appeal to nationalsim and 'special needs'. Foretunately, the majority of smartphones owned by intelligent people in that country are already switching to ANZ. 

What part of this article is actual news? :l

If analysts are wrong about Apple then it stands to reason they are wrong about Samsung too. I mean, with articles like “Why Samsung’s exploding phones make me want even more to purchase the Galaxy 8” (the logic being new Samsung phones will be super safe because Samsung tested the crap out of then), well, what can I say. C|net and Brian (the Twink) Tong will be hard selling it bigtime.

Oh, you made me laugh! Nice work!
