Apple Locks Google, AdMob Out of iPhone Advertising
The difference between Google and Apple. . .
Not the case with Apple.
Watch the video, it's on YouTube.
They're banning Google and Microsoft from advertising on their platform because ads from both Google and Microsoft supporting Apple's developers are a conflict of interest in Apple's eyes.
And by blocking analytics, you're pretty much blocking advertising. Google sells ads per click, not like billboards.
Apple doesn’t make money if any other third party ad company is used in an app.
I think they are just starting to really feel the heat from Google and will try anything to slow them down.
But to summarize: no. They're not talking about competing ad networks. They're talking about competing OS platforms.
Or how, at launch, itunes synced with other MP3 players and then suddenly couldn't.
Or how they changed their stance on cross compilers.
There is a precedent here.
And even for competing ad firms, apple controls WHAT they can get from their own ads. So if they don't want ad company a to know how many people clicked on their ad while playing farmville, APPLE, not the app maker (or ad maker) can decide that.
Its a conflict...... Since apple is in the add bussiness...
But its not a threat.....
Its a conflict for Apple to help google get ANY LARGER , since that they are rivals for market share.
I like this move by apple.
Would even be Funnier if Google did the same thing....
and took Apple Products Right out of the Google search Engine....
Weird to think how a company can basically CONTROL information the way Google could be able to.
Google didn't remove negative BP publicity from it's search engine, BP BOUGHT all the top search criteria to link to their propaganda.
And before anyone says how evil Google is for allowing it, it's just business, BP paid the cash for the ad space, Google sold it. You can bet that if Steve Jobs thought selling the souls of the 5 year old malayasian kids who assemble his Iphones would make him more money he would, but then he would no one to build his phones.
If you type in "oil spill" NONE of the results seem to be pro BP propoganda.
Maybe you should... google something before you try and make claims about what google shows?

The funny part about Apple allowing Greystripe is that they use Adobe Flash along with HTML5 for their ads and Apple will continue to allow them to do so. So the iphone and ipad will kinda get Flash but only for ads 😢
I would love to hear Steve's reasoning for allowing "bad" Flash-ads on iOS but not "good" Flash like games and videos. When hes's getting paid Flash ads must not hurt battery life all of the sudden...crazy how that happens.

2) We're talking about in-app ads, not the web.
3) No the iPhone and iPod/iPad will not get Flash. The ads are shown with the frameworks built in to the iPhone/iPad OS but are not compiled to platform-specific code. That's no different than someone exporting a Flash file to MPEG-4. (That article is trying really hard but no this is nothing new.)
