One where farts are a major part of it I'd assume..
The average person farts a half liter of gas per day or, in other words, over 10,000 liters in their lifetime.

This absolutely goes to far. For the people that say, "I can understand...," you need to go take day #1 of an economics 101 class. Hello, people! We live in a free market society. Let's KEEP it a free market. (That's free as in speech, not free as in beer.)
Let the consumers decide which apps rise to the top and which languish in "1-stardom."
**** you, Apple.
This is just it, there's some utter crap on the appstore really, some of it is probably people experimenting with the SDK and seeing what can be done with it. More still is people just hoping for a quick buck.Should Crazy Eye be removed then?

Again, let the consumers decide which apps are worthwhile. Any other way is fascist and evil.
What definition of free market are you using exactly? To begin with We don't live in a free market, we just like to throw the phrase around when it suits our needs.
Secondly, since when does a free market entail forcing companies to sell and distribute anything that's submitted to them? The whole "free" part of things happens to apply to retailers making their own choices about what and what not to sell.
Also, could everyone take a deep breath and tone down the rhetoric about "censorship"? The app store is not a public forum, and the right to "free speech" and "freedom of expression" simply does not apply to this situation. Just as privately owned blogs and forums have the right to censor whatever they like, so does the App Store. The idea that, by rejecting an app that they did not wish to sell, Apple was oppressing our rights or somehow engaging in ideological censorship is completely absurd. Yes, it was an arbitrary decision. Plenty of other apps should never have gotten onto the store. Ultimately, though, it's Apple's store and what makes it on and what doesn't is their choice. Maybe you don't like it, but that's simply the way things stand.
Yes continue to praise censorship, great idea.![]()
Fascist and evil? I somehow feel you might be overstating your point.
Now I consider myself a very democratic thinker, however, the app store was not designed for this magnitude of apps and for now the useless apps are just taking up space and making a mess. Once they straighten out the sorting process maybe then there will be room for apps such as this one. Until then I hold my positions on the subject thank you very much.
Agreed. I rescind my fascist and evil remark.How about elitist and disheartening instead?
That's exactly my point. Build a better App Store. Put the control into the consumers hands. The rating system is there. Let us use it!
Fair enough. Would you agree that the broader issue here is the closed nature of iPhone App distribution itself? Not just the rejection of one app?
Ad-hoc distribution is limited to 100 people.
