I guess the question boils down to is this: you said you got apps through questionable methods, did you get them for free while you would have to pay for them normally?
Yup. That's good question too: if it's some banned applications whuch Apple just does not like for one reason or another - it's one thing, if it's programs which are distributed against author's wishes - it's another thing.
Well my point being that while i do
not think jailbreaking your iphone is wrong, or that apple has a right to deny jailbreaking, i
do think getting paid apps for free is wrong, and that apple has the right to delete any apps they detect have been dowloaded illegally.
Likening this to TI, i do
not think it is wrong to hack our devices so that we can run any software we want, and i think its wrong for them to try to prevent us from doing so. But i
do think it is wrong if we distribute some of TI's own software for free, and that TI would have the right to delete the software if they caught us.
EDIT: I might also point out that Apple is not the only one benefiting from sales on the App Store. If i wanted to, i could develop games for the iphone, and distribute them for a living. I would also be a bit upset if i failed to make very much money because people were downloading my apps illegally
