I'm perfectly calm.
Mark, you are one of a very short list of my heros in life.
However, this is a mistake.
If it only goes to ONE store which is profiting off of Sales. THAT is proprietary.
If it sells music in MP3 format, that too, is proprietary.
..and a slap in the face to us all.
The corporate world would never roll out machines with iTunes pre-installed. This is the same thing, except it's calling itself "free".
It will require itself to be uninstalled. And that is sad.
Even Ubuntu One is proprietary. Is that going to be the trend? ....littering the OS will proprietary, in effect, "adware"...? What's next, "Quicken Lite" preinstalled with desktop icons?
