Phil Explains

Since I wrote about the Ninjawords hubub yesterday, I thought it worth pointing to the Daring Fireball post today where Apple senior vice president, Phil Schiller explained what happened.

I think perhaps the most significant part of Phil’s statement is the fact that he made it at all. Apple is the most tight lipped company on the planet. That they are weighing in on this with an actual explanation (as opposed to a two sentence soundbite) is significant. Let’s hope this means they are fixing the App store problems.

    Lets hope Apple acts fast, as this could become a PR nightmare for them. I keep hearing words like capricious & arbitrary in articles referencing to how they control the App store. If you want to keep the “Lion’s Share” of the market, you need to be fair…… or more importantly…… appear that you are.
