And you pay Apple *how* much to guarantee that they don't do things that
upset the business model you consciously chose to use? Oh, you don't
pay them? And your users pay *you* to ensure that when they hit 'Download',
that magical things happen? And iOS downloads are user pulls, not Apple
pushes?
Sounds to me like you and your users need to have a chat about what they
pay for and what their expectations should be.....
