This is why..

[Tony Scharf]

What I wonder is how many already approved apps are going to get
purged.  You have to feal sorry for developers that get rejected after
the fact like that...

Also, I have already heard Adobe might have a case with the FTC.  This
could be crossing the line on some fare trade rules (or so I have
read).

This could get interesting.
