Developers Expect iOS and MacOS To Merge

Posted by CmdrTaco on from the i'm-sure-its-been-discussed dept.

AHuxley noticed the frightening little Ars story talking about a certain expectation that iOS and MacOS will merge, leading to a single DRM-locked OS on your MacBook and your iPad. Certainly Apple would love a piece of every app sold. Now I'm sure that this has been discussed over there, but I wouldn't expect it any time soon.

    If Apple had an App Store for OSX but also allowed you to install stuff from alternative sources, they would still make a killing on all those sheep who would pay $0.99 to change their own desktop wallpaper to a photo they took themselves.

    Didn't expect you to read it, since it wasn't blind pro-apple praise to be honest
