Story: Apple users must pay for faster Wi-Fi
If you read our story carefully...
...you'll notice the sentence which reads "Apple said it is required under generally accepted accounting principles to charge customers for the software upgrade". No we don't mention SOX specifically but that is because Apple did not mention SoX specifically to our correspondent. Yes we could have Googled it, but we prefer to use information that we have sourced first-hand.
It does throw up an interesting issue though, and we've been scratching our heads here as to what this means for the wider industry if the reason Apple gives is true: for instance does it mean Microsoft should charge for every service pack?
Personally I find Apple's reason rather incongruous, but I'm no accountant so we shall look into this further.
