I'm a solo dev who just shipped my first iPhone app, and reading this is a good reminder of why I went the App Store route. My code ships as a compiled binary, so there's no source for anyone to copy and republish. I pay Apple's cut and complain about review delays like everyone else, but never having to file a DMCA takedown against someone reselling my own work is worth it.
Just replying that I vouched for this post, and to ask others to please restrain their pique and not flag it into oblivion again.
This is a good faith contribution to the discussion, and frankly, the way things are going, the point it raises is something most of us need to consider.
