Oh right that other store I can use on the iphone.

The iPhone was never sold or offered with support for other stores. Just because you want access doesn’t mean Apple has to provide its services for free. Make a web app, attract your own users, and convince them to pay for it.

That's not what I was poking fun at. You said it's cheaper than the other stores. WHAT OTHER STORES?

No one is asking for apple to provide services for free, we're saying they can't block competing services from existing. which is exactly what they do and rent seek to boot on top of it. I've already thoroughly debunked this nonsense from you. you're just a bootlicker or apple employee.
