No they don't. They don't have a competing service there yet.

#6Whats next iphones only opening approved websites?
EDIT: While that seems super sarcastic. Consider this: Game streaming services are in the end just a gateway app to games, in the same way the browser is a gateway to the internet. Furthermore apple already did hinder "browserish" gateways, like apps which are a gateway to more ergonomically reading word-press blogs or message apps which where gateways to a federated "internet of messaging".

Apparently they're blocking rainway end user iOS clients from connecting via external networks to end user host PCs. Local host client and server works as expected.

They'd try that if they thought they could get away with it.
