    Apple really needs to can Intel once and for all. Apple could buy AMD and kill Intel.
    Well, that wouldn't help in this case, would it?

    China doesn't desserve Apple. Apple gives China jobs, and China doesn't appreciate it. China needs Apple a lot more than Apple needs China.

    Without Apple, China would have nothing except Android , which makes no profit. Who do they think they are? They should kiss Apple's feet.
    Last time I checked I thought that Apple’s revenue is about 30% from China. In all honesty, i don’t think that Apple accounts for 30% of China’s Economy. Hence, I don’t subscribe that China needs Apple more than vice versa. 
    Also, manufacturing in China is because it benefits Apple, not as a kind gesture to the Chinese government. Apple has a lot to gain from playing nice. Financially. Not necessarily morally.

    Right, because Apple doesn’t need developers. What’s so wrong with offering trials? I’d love to be able to try an app and see if I like it before I buy it. I’d love to know how indie developers are doing on the App Store. I’ll bet most of Apple’s payouts are going to large companies or game developers with stupid IAP.

    I’m curious, what do eBay and Amazon charge to sell things on their website? Is it comparable to Apple’s 30%?
    Apple doesn't allow free trials. And they know why. Believe me, Apple knows why.
    And you know this why? Because Apple can do no wrong?
