Ralph Sir Edward - Thing is, they are not making a profit. The App store does not generate them that much money! They're running it down for no good return. It's bizarre.
Sonist - Yes, that makes it even worse. And of course, even if they did they could easily grant a licence for iPhone apps to use them, unlike certain appologia suggesting they somehow have to ruthlessly crush good apps.
