Not gonna start an Android vs iOS war.
Not sure if this is new but I think not everyone knew about this.
No pun intended, this guy name is Guy Kawasaki. He was the evangelist of Apple and the creator of Cult of Mac. He choose to jump to Android Devices because Android is more innovative compare to iOS. Watch the video to know more.
What are your opinions on this?

I think he hit the right note when he said he wants to be loyal to what is best, and at this time, that's Android. We are customers. We are not supposed to be loyal to a brand if that brand outlives its useful service to us. Companies make the decision they think is best for them - whether that's their books, customer base, or what have you. We should do what makes the most sense for us as customers, including for our own pocketbooks.

That's their business model. They didn't hide that it's a closed ecosystem. In fact, they made a selling point of the "walled garden" so any customer who buys an iOS knows what they're getting into. Or should know, if they're competent to have a cell phone.

Or a credit card. :D :D

And THAT'S the Problem with Apple, not that it's a closed ecosystem some people don't care but that to Apple their "loyal" customers are nothing but credit cards on legs.

Every company looks at their customers that way. That's the goal of business, get people to give you money.

To an extent yes, but not to the same level.

Remember, you are not Google's core customer. They do not speak to us the same way they speak to their customers. They have to be nice to us users as without our information their product is not as valuable to their customers.
