  7. Re:Actually a competitor sold out ... on How Apple Killed an iTunes Competitor · · Score: 1

    Is that really so simple? Does selling a company (with paying customers) free me of all my contractual obligations to these customers? If Apple sold iTunes to Google, Google would be free to shut everything down in 5 months, killing everyone's music collections??

    Their customers should have sued them for everything they got in that deal...

    Apple could shut down everything, without prior notice. And it wouldn't be a violation of its contractual obligations, since the users agreed to it (the TOS).
