The Apple appstore is a *store* - its owned by Apple, and it sells stuff. The chosen suppliers of the 'stuff' get a cut of what is sold, if Apple chooses to sell that 'stuff'.

Apple is not 'blocking access to [whatever]', it is merely exercising its right to choose what to sell.

Oh, and by the way - the Apple appstore not a free and unrestricted marketplace.
