Developer Blames Apple For Ruining eBook Business

An anonymous reader writes "A bookseller and app developer has blamed Apple for writing its final chapter, claiming the iPad maker had pushed it out of business. 'Apple has made it completely impossible for anyone but Apple to make a profit selling contemporary ebooks on any iOS device,' BeamItDown said. 'We bet everything on Apple and iOS and then Apple killed us by changing the rules in the middle of the game.' The company blamed Apple's decision to impose a 30% commission on books sold through apps for the unhappy ending."

If you want an oven that can bake anything you buy an oven, if you buy an easy-bake oven don't complain when the only thing you can make is stuff that uses the easy-bake mix.

The iPad and the iPhone are not generic PC's and never will be.
