This is in the end a religious argument so there is no winning. For me, my house is apple free. The reasons are simple, the actions of the company are not what I want to support.
-They are making their products in sweatshops where people kill themselves.
-They willfully use blood precious metals in their products.
-They are suing everyone in sight to try and protect market share (basically for steeling IP they stole from someone else).
-They do whatever they can do to be a closed system that they and only they control.
-the list goes on and on.
In the end they have become significantly worse than the companies (company) they claimed to be the alternative to. They claim to be taking measures to stop the sweatshops and blood metals yet it still happens, so how hard are they really trying?
They are the monsters of the corporate world these days with a following that blindly ignores the evils, for me it is entirely an ethical argument. Shiney features, flashy cases, etc. do not factor in.
Of course many of the alternatives are no better, but they are also not claiming a hippy counter culture alternative to the evil world.
