The focus is on Apple because of the huge slice of the market they have. From a reporting point of view, Apple actually do better than many of their competitors.
That's why anything I read about apple I take with a grain of salt. Because they pointed out because they are big. And when Microsoft were big they got pointed out too. There is always a bad guy and over the years I've noticed that the bad guy is not often the worst, just an easy target. That doesn't mean they don't need to change their practices. They do. They all do. And as much as I love apple I hope the bad rep pushes then in the right direction so everyone else is forced to follow.
