@rsencion That metaphor works if you only have one friend (or two, maybe, but your other friend doesn't have any friends who pay for stuff), this is the only way you can sell things, and your entire business is predicated on your ability to sell things to these friends — PolitiTweet.org

By this logic Apple also shouldn’t allow Twitch (can’t review all the streams!) or Netflix (all the movies!) or YouTube (all the songs!) or Twitter or Facebook or like half the stuff on the App Store. This is such bad-faith logic — PolitiTweet.org

@rsencion @verge Well that's very nice of you, and this is all true! And I'm also hopeful that web apps are part of the answer – but it seems to me that after a decade-plus of betting on native apps, that'll take time to unwind. I don't think Apple ever thought it'd be this powerful, though — PolitiTweet.org
