applethrow··on Apple says game streaming services violate App Store policies
I agree - it's pretty simple. Videos are not games. Literally different words. If you think that Apple is in the wrong here, guys, you should just switch to Android. It's a private company and they can do what they want. I appreciate their oversight, because now I know that I can't get hacked by Microsoft allowing bad games on their app!

I don't see why this is controversial. Apple is a PRIVATE company and so they can do whatever they want. As a loyal Apple customer, I'm glad that they are doing everything they can to make sure iOS is a consistent experience! People keep on saying that this is an overstep, or worse, that this is just transparent greed. But that is wrong, Apple is merely defending the walled garden they have created. Think of all the value Apple has added to each of our lives. It is only fair that they should get a fair return on that environment that enables us iOS developers to make a meager living.
