article published on 17 February, 2009
Last October South Park Studios, creators of the Comedy Central show with the same name, submitted an iPhone app to Apple.

Apple being hyper regulatory isn't news. They've been this way since the 80s. If you dislike the selection available for the iPhone, I think the obvious answer is don't buy an iPhone.
Apple isn't the only cell phone maker...
Apple isn't the only smartphone maker...
Apple isn't the only touch screen smartphone maker...

And people wonder why Microsoft Windows and the PC platform came to dominate the computer market...

the iTunes App Store provides all the choice necessary
As long as you chose what we say is appropriate.
After all, China is a good country to emulate!

I just want to say that I hate Apple. That's all. ... O ya, they suck. I just watched "Welcome to Macintosh" and they are trying to take credit for popularizing USB and CD-Roms. Lets face it, even if they were the first ones to use CD-Roms, did they really thing no one else would have thought of it? C'mon and get your heads out of your @ss Apple(Sh*t). And as far as I know, Intel was who came out with USB. Just because they started using intel inside a few years ago doesn't give them the right to claim USB. ... O ya, they suck and I hate their phone.

there is an effective card-counting program available in the Apple App Store for iPhone and iPod Touch users.
Commiting a Felony is acceptable, but a foul mouthed cartoon kid is not?

Damn it,and I was gonna buy an iPhone, but since viewing South Park on it is not permitted, I guess I will not be allowed to view my Jenna Jameson collection either...Oh well...:), I guess I'll say no to Apple for another decade...

It's not a crime to count cards but casinos WILL ban you if you do. Accepting a card counter is still irresponsible on Apple's part due to the fact that it is cheating a legit business out of money.

As I understand it, it's not a crime to count cards... it IS a felony to use a device to count cards.

Well i wouldn´t say that... Atleast Ms doesnt say you have to buy their hardware (you cant get apple os with out apple computer) and mostlikely they would have done the same with computers (apple approved software only) if they ended up where ms is now... and btw Im not Ms fan (more of a linux user)
Also i havent heard ms saying what software users can run on cellphones that have ms os or what ever it is called.
The way apple has beeing acting lately i might even say that if apple had succeeded back then it would be like 1984.

U know, I like apple, i like the phone, but when they try so hard to do much crap like this, is what i dont like about apple. not accepting the south park app, about the counting card app, bunch of crap, specially jail breaking. Whatever APPLE, your tech is unique but your brain need to get laid.

Yeah, Apple is gonna piss off some people on this either way. I don't like their decision, but then I don't have kids either.
Good opportunity for all the Microsoft fanboys to jump in with their cheap shots though.

My 2 cents and I think everyone will agree.
Apple wants clones, Micro$oft wants users.
As I can think for myself I choose to put whatever I want on my iphone as its MINE! NOT APPLES. I brought it so I can do whatever I like with it.
If Apple dont like it then go have a cry in the corner and dont come out till your a big boy.
Apple, grow up.
