Sorry Apple. You are many years of good behavior away from my trusting you with this big a piece of my infrastructure.


I absolutely don't understand why you got downvoted because i absolutely feel the same. Apple has a proven record of not understanding anything related to the web, and having product and technology issues with anything related to it.

Just yesterday evening, you couldn't add an app on itunesconnect because of some angularjs error ( which they apparently used to refactor their site), and you could trace the debug log on the console, and follow the link on angularjs documentation ( a "bindonce" directive not included error).


Can you elaborate on this? Why? And why many years?


They have been providing rock solid internet infrastructure, and the tools for it, going back to the acquisition of NeXT. WebOBjects, for instance, powered Dell's online store, and selling direct was Dell's entire purpose of being in business in the 1990s. It's been powering iTunes since 2003 or so with less than a tenth as much downtime as Amazon Web Services... yet lots of people use AWS.


I don't think the OP was talking about the quality of the product.
