Yes indeed, but in this case Apple was being an ass hole on purpose. With 
all the innovative, new products that Apple is working on they have 
gotten to be quite crazy about controlling information. While I 
understand Apple's point, I didn't agree with what they did.

Usually Apple is not so cutthroat. For example when iTunes put Panic 
Software's flagship product, Audion, out of business Steve Jobs made a 
point of meeting with the owners of that small company and even offered 
them jobs. I have never seen a story where MS acted so decently.
