So basically taking money away as an obstacle? It’s not illegal to copy an application. Look at Instagram’s stories compared to Snapchat.
The only difference is that there might be a little less profit incentive now. Perhaps we’ll get some interesting ideas from people who never would have been able to create them.
IMHO the video game scene is better than ever. Maybe you don't like what 90% games have become and that is fair. But go to itch.io and you will find a wide array of different games that will for sure suit your tastes. Maybe they are not that popular.
Nope, I'll bet that many, many professional consultants and lawyers will now use these to take conference calls in even more comfort than the originals. Seriously, if you spend all day on the phone (aka, a professional), they're awesome.
Yes, and if quality is better than AirPods 1, they can replace pro wireless microphone kits from Røde, Sennheiser etc., just like iPhone Pro can replace many cameras.
I guess the problem is the store. The app allows to access valve's store (which is far cheaper than games in the apple store). If they remove the ability to buy games I am sure the remote desktop app would be ok.
The difference is in the steam store app doesn't actually enable you to play the games on the phone itself, while the steam link app will let you do exactly that.
If they were wrapped up in a single package that was marketed towards buying and playing those games, using the same logic they quite probably would be.
