Charles Pulliam-Moore wrote an article to Slate on March 8, 2013. As electronics such as IPads and IPhones continue to get bigger and bigger, Apple and Amazon are debating whether to have a site where you can sell your used electronics with the stuff you had on it, such as books or games. Apple would create this site to facilitate the resale of their old products. Users would also be able to transfer ownership so the new owner will be able to use everything on it as if it were his. Also, just as old books, ebooks would be considered the same thing. This new system would attract more costumers to Apple and Amazon. Moore said that in creating a used digital store, Apple would provide an easier, safer, quicker alternative to pirating media, and empower its users to move more freely within its digital walled garden.

Moore's purpose in writing this article was not only to inform readers about a new possibility Apple can be providing to their costumers dealing with used objects, but also to persuade readers to use Apple instead of Android. Moore provided the reader with many details as to what exactly is happening and how they are planning to do it. Moore researched this article well. After a person that has Android or neither Android or Apple, this article makes the person choose Apple.
