This is slightly off topic but is something I am quite mad about.

Imagine being able to just open your iPhone/iTouch and watch your favourite movie on Netflix.  You can with your favourite game console, Roku box, and on your computer.  Why wouldn’t you be able to do it on your iphone/iTouch?

I’ll tell you why.

Because Apple  is deliberately preventing Netflix from releasing this app on their platform.  They are afraid what would happen if people started using it enmass…it will hurt their iTunes sales.  And they’re scared.

Pure and Simple.

They would rather hurt their customers and preventing us from getting what we want because they can.  This is the problem with monopolies.

This is the biggest gripe I have with Apple.  This is why more and more people will eventually migrate over to Androit..an open platform without all these controls.

Can anyone say “What? No Flash support on a iTouch?”  That’s insanity!  It’s not because of incompatibility.  It’s just politics.  Pure and simple.

Let’s start a movement.  Start submitting comments to this post…or make your own.  Let Apply know your mind.

Sincerely
