Im not surprised. Apple products used to just work, now they... Just update. I have two colleagues who are 100% non technical, they are planning to ditch their iPhone 6's for android devices. They are sick of the price gouging, itunes lock-in and storage problems. Having moved I android 10 months ago, as a 7/8 year iPhone user, I couldn't be happier.

Oh, well - he removed the post, but I archived it from Google Cache - http://archive.is/URN78

Very true. It is not so much about [specific] ecosystem, it is about watching any superior/reliable product(s) getting gradually worse or given less attention or both. Apple hardware and software are nowhere near where they were some five years ago.

Recent example: Fix for iTunes app store searchability / visibility problem... Ads!
