That is exactly what I had in mind. I may contact Apple and see if this might change in future. The address I am using is not gmail but my provider's so its not a big issue. Just makes little sense.

I've wondered about this as well. I'd love to use my iCloud address as my only 
Apple ID, but my current ID, with all my purchased items and data, is tied to 
my old Gmail address. I want to combine them, but there seems no way of doing 
this.

No unless you have another email address which isn't an iCloud email address.

    After creating an iCloud email account, I wanted to use that for my
Apple ID instead of another address. Apparently I cannot and found this
info below that atates what cannot be used for an Apple ID.

"The email address is not an iCloud email address, which is already an
Apple ID. iCloud email addresses end with @icloud.com, @me.com, or
@mac.com."

    This is what I am curious about. "...which is already an Apple ID."
Can I change this somehow? Thanks.
