I can say that Google is more reliable than Apple. If they’re keep on killing apps, including their competitor Podcaster, they could lose everything. Unlike Google Voice in Safari Browser, much reliable but awkward to use.

My rate: Google +1, Apple 0.

Every big corporation is really concerned with one thing, making money for its shareholders. if it makes sense long term to get rid of competing technologies and companies, they will do it. This happens in every market.

And nevertheless the Internet is evolving so quickly in my opinion, from a user perspective.

In regards to

“Maybe it’s surprising that the mighty Google couldn’t work out a deal here”

I believe Google have run the numbers for possible outcomes in this latest ‘chess move’ by Apple in restricting one of their services and realised that the possible outcomes might be:

- press coverage of consumer outrage over the apps withdrawal gets Google’s new product on the top of new and tech blogs globally
- Apple consumers seeing Apple as a little bit more evil and picking on Google who didn’t fight back
- Another reason to get a Google android phone to get unique services not available on iPhone

results are Google 1, Apple 0. I wouldn’t say ‘Check’ from the Chess game analogy above but one move closer for sure.
