> Business users can still control their update schedule.

Eh, not quite. "Control" would let you defer a potentially troublesome update indefinitely. Microsoft says for Current Branch for Business (CBB):

Updates cannot be deferred indefinitely.

CBB includes the requirements of the Current Branch, but also provides the option of customizing when and which Security Updates, Features and Fixes are applied, similar to how Windows Update works today in current versions of Windows.

It appears to me that business users have "control" over their update schedule, sort of like a damaged airplane with only one wing has "control" over when and where it lands.

Now that’s troubling news. I have a bunch of remote workers with mifi connections in varying locations. I always disable updates to prevent them from downloading while they are in the field. Then I catch them up when they are available in the office. Hmm may have to think about my upgrade plans a bit more.

So it works the same as Windows Update does not. Have you ever had to disable Windows Update on your Windows Boxes to prevent installing an update indefinitely?
