is it that you think people giving Apple money is somehow ruining your own experiences with different manufacturers in some way? what is it that is upsetting to you personally when someone enjoys/spends money on something you think is inferior?

Below is my honest opinion and the reason I won't be buying any Apple product again.
In Apples case the money does go to trying to get rid of competition from other manufacturers, they seem to be constantly trying to get any other competitive products banned. It's pretty apparent this is a deliberate strategy by Apple to try and stop any of us having a choice or other options.
Believe it or not a couple of years ago I was a happy Apple user but as a fan of all tech their patent trolling has annoyed me to the extent that I gave up my large expensive iTunes library and started buying the competitors.
Apples been spending so much time and money on trying to become a monopoly that they are now seriously behind everyone else in actual tech and it's doubtful they will ever catch up.
