Apple makes most of their money off of accessories. So does the stores that sells their products. So they keep giving reasons to buy more accessories and u literally have sheep ass people defending this bullshyt like it benefits them in any way. And for the people it doesn't affect. They can't wrap their skulls around the fact that not everyone feels like them and think past their own shyt for a second. Smh.

So cause Apple alone makes a dumb ass decision that only benefits them and inconvenience's the customer. People have to adapt? Guess what? Cars STILL have CD players in them. Even with the tech moving forward. Cause they know people still use cd's. Removing a fukking headphone jack benefits no one but Apple. This shyt makes zero sense. 3.5 Jacks are the standard everywhere. This new iPhone is literally the only ones pulling this shyt. Yet ur comparing that to CDs? There's literally no sign that headphone jacks are on the way out. Especially of nikkas don't dikkride everything apple does and don't support them with their money.

yeah but within 2 years it will likely become the norm
That's not an issue if everyone standardizes like the usb or hdmi cords, but Apple is gonna do its own thing, then you'll have everyone else doing something different. Having aux headphones, apple head phones, droid/Samsung/etc headphones, and fifty leven adapters ain't whoa. accessories are nothing but pure profit, and for the next 4 years while this shyt gets sorted out, the consumer "suffers". I'm not saluting this as some visionary change, it's a money grab and attempt to lock people further into predefined ecosystems. That's business so it's whatever, but this disruption is an inconvenience at this point.

:stopitslime: stop playing dumb tom foolery nikka

you moving goal posts.

I specifically responded to your bullshyt article stating that apple killed techonlogies. They killed they own shyt that didn't take off.

Yes, some were their own, but some were not.

You're being selective because you don't want talk about netbooks, floppy disk, Optical drives, flash.

This is a complete lie. They make most of there money off iPhone sales. Peripherals contribute to a small percent of revenue.

Also, the rumor is they are shipping with an adapter.

Homeboy said people change cars every 3-4 years? Who? My car was a 5 year loan and you think I'm getting a new car when it's paid off for a fukking aux cord? This is apple showing you they run shyt when they don't. Now bring up sales and I'll tell you nsync is better then scarface so what's really good?

I'll give you netbooks, but the macbook air is nothing more than a glorified netbook beh. Same fukking idea, but more expensive and hipster

:russ: if you think apple contributed to floppy drives dying. like all forms of media something better was/is going to come out.

so did apple help kill zip drives too :comeon: FOH

Optical drives are sill being used.

Flash is less apple and more HTML5 standardization.

you and that fukkboy article give apple too much credit.

nikka no its not a lie. Their accessories are pure profit. Most people don't buy phones flat out. And the stores barely make overhead on their phones. Apple accessories are overpriced as hell for this reason. If u factor in their Macbooks and Ipads n shyt like that. It's a different story.
