Yeah really..”what doesn’t it do in the background that you need it to do” is the question that needs to be asked.
Playback of music is a huge one. Being able to let file upload/downloads finish in the background is another good one. Maintaining a GPS fix is a nice one to have...oh wait, this sounds familiar - sorta like all the API’s that Apple gave developers to achieve these goals
