iPhone users already pay for hardware.

Which has absolutely nothing to do with paying for the App Store or games on it. What's your point? Apple should be forced to give up control of their work?

My point is definitely not that Apple should be forced to give up control of their work, since I'm not sure which work you're referring to.

As far as I know, you can't use Apple's store without Apple's hardware. So my point is that Apple is getting paid.
