I agree. Right now it's just for people who pay for Apple's products.

Why should Apple open up its stable? They did the work. Their customers paid for it.

The UK and then the US will have a new lifestyle where everyone's been to jail at least once. As politicians cut earned benefits for normal people, Welfare Queens like the military, Heimland Security, War on Citizens, and private prison system will grow, and grow.

They don't.

Your comment reminds me of how every gadget tried to have a candy look in the early Bush years.
