Apple Straining Flash Memory Supply?

[HardOCP News]

DigiTimes has learned from their sources that memory makers in Taiwan have begun reserving more of their stock for Apple resulting in a strain on supply to other customers.

With Apple increasing the amount NAND flash ordered from its suppliers, other customers of Hynix Semiconductors and Samsung Electronics are seeing growing difficulties in securing sufficient stock.

I wonder if it's Apple or Apple's bootleggers hmmm.

I don't think it's straining stock for other buyers as much as it is the suppliers who prefer to cater to apple since they are a big buyer.

Regardless if it was an Apple product or not, the demand for those type of devices will be there.
