This is great for some people, certainly. I won't knock it for people who's lives are better with this.

But let's not kid ourselves. It's still their system; you're still playing by their rules and doing things their way. Their history in this space is not good at all. Maybe things have changed for the better; but it doesn't change the fact that this only brings you deeper into their walled garden.

One of the reasons apple doesn't like the web is they can't make money from them like they can from apps. Now, they have a way. They still have a bad track record with infrastructure; numerous instances of failures, but I imagine they're getting better.

Thanks, but no thanks.
