“Advertising is an approved method of monetization for this platform.”

Advertising is one thing… but does Apple really going to approve these spammy DR ringtone ads and free ipod crap….

I think you have a slightly skewed few of Apple’s audience, especially anything with the iBranding. There are tons of kids, teens, and young adults rocking iPhones (not to mention iPod Touches).

There are a few reasons I doubt this model, but audience isn’t one of them.
