Banshee Amazon Store disabled in Ubuntu 11.04 by Canonical (Network World)

Banshee was already packaged on Ubuntu, for Canonical NOTHING changes. They just do what they should do - pick the best software and ship that to their users. They do their frickin' job as distro, just like all others. They should thank the Banshee developers for creating something so cool they ship it as default! Instead of taking their (little!) income away...

Banshee has many developers working on it, Canonical needs one guy 1 hour per month to get it packaged. Pretty sure my 1/100.000 is not far off.

The other stuff Canonical does like marketing and other blabla is useful - for them. Not for Banshee. If Canonical didn't exist, other distro's would ship their apps and they don't take 75%, not even the company that developed Banshee (Novell) does that in their SUSE or in openSUSE.

But let's be friendly and say Canonical has contributed to Banshee by bringing it to users - that effort is worth 75%? That is way more insulting that saying their effort is worth 1/100.000, frankly.
