Since the opening of the App Store on July 11th, developers have had a long-standing feud with the App Store. The ambiguous terms of what is accepted into the App Store has many developers frustrated and annoyed with Apple.
This became a resurfacing issue today with Apples decision to reject a Podcaster App. The reason behind the rejection: "Since Podcaster assists in the distribution of podcasts, it duplicates the functionality of the Podcast section of iTunes." This isn't sitting too well with the developer and fellow developers.
Since the debut of the App Store, I have been hoping for a Podcaster App to come along and now I know why I haven't seen one. Apple needs to clearly define the terms for what is accepted and what isn't. Why did the "I am Rich" application make it, but useful ones like the Podcaster get rejected? You're better than that, Apple.
