You can't see how that's a double edged sword though?

I buy a device, I even buy a special computer so I can build programs for the device... and now I have to pay $99/year just to comfortably run my own program on my own device? Even worse, I can't even continue to digitally interface with my own customers, people who Apple never helped me land as clients, without passing through Apple's arbitrary store rules AND paying them 30%?

That's fucking dog shit and it's going to have to change, especially given that they have 50% of the market in the US.
