Thanks for clarifying. I'm guessing Microsoft has directly talked to Apple about this before spending time building their infrastructure.

I'm thinking many people at Apple are happy to encourage OTA updates and even side loading apps. The original guidelines were dictated by you-know-who and so that's what they rolled with, but are willing to look the other way now (even though this type of code push directly violates the spirit of the App Store as a closed and controlled environment)
