Apple's primary goal is to sell Macs. Software will always take a back seat to hardware sales for Apple. Consider this: iTunes is free for all to download, but you have to pay for the ipod. Sure there's lots of benefits to treating your customers well so they'll buy the next product, and the next. But with Apple's dismissal of the Logic Control and AMT8 and Unitor8 from their product lineup, the message was sent loud and clear -- peripherals do not matter to Apple, even if they'd help the bottom line.
