It was more of a sign of weakness cutting themselves off of the exposure and money cell phones had to offer due to being stubborn.

I kind of agree that they were stubborn on the mobile front for a while -but part of me wants to believe they just didn't want to put their Ips on the mobile App Store and this type of advertising based app should of been part of their strategy from the get go
