Isnt this just the user creating multiple accounts for something they didnt have to?

I mean all this stuff would work with just one account right?

Many people didn't really have a choice. MobileMe Accounts (@me.com email addresses) were automatically set up as a new Apple ID - even if the user already had an existing Apple ID for the iTunes Store.

When iCloud was introduced, anyone who wanted to keep their old @me.com email address, also had to keep the second Apple ID.
