A Good thoughtful post. One thought about your point

“Apple controls functionality and distribution.”

Where this might not be ideal for developers, it does seem to be in line with Apple’s strategy to move more and more into the “content delivery” business. Not only is this visible with iTunes, but also in hardware. The Apple Air without an optical Drive and HD players not available for their computers. These are not necessary when all content will be delivered.

This is not necessarily a “bad” thing - we will have to wait to see.

@poorsod: good to hear. And I will say, I’ve heard lots and lots of happy jailbreakers!

As an Ipod Touch owner, for me the glass is completely full. I am getting new stuff that I was not expecting, whatever way you look at it.

I paid the full price for my ipod about three months ago (and it’s still slightly unbelievable); I don’t know when the announcement about official 3rd-party app support was made but I bought it not expecting any app support ever.

Later on a friend told me about jailbreaking. Economically speaking this is an unexpected bonus against the cost/benefit of me buying it when I did, because with the information I had at the time (I wasn’t expecting *any* third-party apps) I was still happy to pay full price for it. It was even more amazing after the jailbreak.

Now that they are adding an official route in for developers, well, the way I see it that just means more apps for me - another bonus against the price of the ipod. The jailbreak path will remain open (though perhaps not as popular) so from now on I will be getting apps from two sources.

Whether you think the charging is fair or not will be reflected in whether you buy the update or not. I will be; $10 (£5) is nothing.

Interesting, though that raises more questions for me. Taking the example of Zune … is Microsoft accounting purchase price differently? Are they actually arguably out of compliance? Are they reading the same law differently? It’s certainly hard to me to read the intent of the revenue recognition law as being applicable here, but I’m not a lawyer.

Revenue Recognition is the reason Apple has to charge for the update on the iPod touch.

They accounted for all these updates (i.e. new features) into the price of an iPhone. They must not have accounted for any new features being added for the iPod Touch. If a company releases a free update which has new features in it, it only means that you essentially paid for the updates in advance when purchasing the product. I’m pretty sure we have Enron to thank for this one.
