iPod touch Getting iPod Touch software v2.0 "free" before July 11....

[Wild-Bill]

Well s&@t then, since McDonalds makes billions each year as well maybe I should just jump over the counter and take what I want for lunch and give them a big f&^k you grin as I leave.

I just bought a touch a few weeks ago and I will happily pay the $10 for an OS update.

Good for you, nOOb. 🙄 Pay your 10 bucks. And your McDonald's analogy makes no sense in the context of iPhone vs iPod touch. 🙄

And what makes you think that I am a nOOb, because I am not willing to steal software? Explain to me how your concept that because Apple has over 16 billion in cash justifies you stealing their products? Plus this is not the context of iPhone vs iPod Touch, it is the simple fact that you are stealing a product. So enjoy stealing it, go ahead and torrent all the free software that you want.

My sister bought a touch like two weeks ago. And Im' going to make SURE she doesn't pay for it. It's a ripoff in my opinion, and in many many others' opinion.

I'm sure someone will be kind enough to put it up on the torrents, and I'll grab it for my sister.

For a company with 16 BILLION in CASH, Apple sure loves to nickel and dime people. 🙄

I doubt it will be on the torrents as it's DRM'd like the music.

Dude, Chuck Norris can make calls with an iPod Touch😀

Uhh.... because it's clearly stated right under your name???

And thank you, I WILL enjoy stealing the 2.0 software from torrent sites.

And, giving the 2.0 software to iPhone owners while CHARGING Touch owners 9.99 is called extortion. And the 16 billion in cash statement is supposed to make one think : "Why do they need to fleece Touch owners for 9.99 a piece when they've LITERALLY got 16 billion in cash lying around".

Regardless, I'm not paying for it. And I'm sure many many other's won't. Apple charging Touch users for the update is just plain wrong.

And since you don't agree, I leave you with this ancient Chinese proverb: "A fool and his money are soon parted".

Please explain how that's extortion. They're not forcing you to buy anything.

I know that the software 2.0 is being released on July 11th, but is there an exact time? For example, will it be available for upgrade at midnight?

Ahhhh and the other Chinese proverb: "A thief will get cornholed in the prison shower."

You are a complete idiot. And if you choose not to pay for it, that is fine, but using it without paying for it is illegal.

Again, you are an idiot. And BTW, the number of posts you make does not determine how much of an educated user you are. Which is clear in your case.

GMC has $25 billion in their reserves. Try going to a car lot and demanding every upgrade for free. Let us know how it goes!

Someone from IPTF phoned apple and asked whether the update would be coming preloaded on iPod touches after july 11, and apparently apple said that they would have to pay for it anyhow.
