Apple is going to ban them from their sores. !!
One reason stated in article: One vendor speculated that the ban is an Apple marketing attempt to suggest screen durability, despite scratches that have damaged both plastic and glass displays of its products for years.
D'uh! I'm anal about protecting my Mac stuff and I'll use a screen protector!

It sounds more like a retail adjustment. If a product doesn't generate enough sales/profit margin to pay for its space, it gets canceled. That's retail.

Ya think?
Read this from MacWorld link:
Among the most popular accessories for the iPhone, iPod, and MacBook lines are films and coverings designed to protect the screen from scratches; some products also fight glare and offer privacy protection. However, several vendors—who wish to remain anonymous to avoid conflict with Apple—have told Macworld that Apple will no longer sell such products, or any other products that adhere to Apple devices, in either the online Apple Store or Apple retail stores.
