    Why would you want to pay for racy apps when you could convert your own personal video collection for the iphone for free.

    Tell me again about how Apple is so far ahead of it’s competition with 50,000 apps and most of them are rubbish like this.

    Apple banned the Nine Inch Nails app for lyrics that contained profanity (however those very songs are able to be purchased on the iTunes store),yet they allow this kind of thing? Just a tad hypocritical there, Apple.

    This is such a non-issue: mobile Safari doesn’t block content, find yourself a good ol’ non-flash porn site and stream/download ’til you hit your bandwidth limit.

    Geez, geeks, show some initiative! Why would you install this stuff as a paid application when you can find whatever mild, medium, or disgusting content you want, free, on your built in browser? Porn is the ultimate renewable internet resource.

    How can “GOOD IN BED” be a app thats approved…. Its also kinda sexual even though there are no bikini models…. If apps like iSutra gets rejected these apps sud also not be allowed in store….

    There’s a new app called “Peekaboo” in the App Store that features 3D models of nearly naked women.

    As a developer I find Apple’s stance very frustrating. We have had a celebrity bikini based app in review for over a month now, after it was first rejected for being too sexual due to an image of Abi Titmus naked – yet posing in a way so nothing “naughty” was visible. Other apps out there are fair more sexually explicit, our images are fairly tame, yet Apple seem to have dropped us into the bottomless pit or “App under review”.
    They did send us an email saying that it was taking longer than normal to review, but 3 weeks later and we have still heard nothing..

    If they let bikini girls based apps in, then they should let them all in, either that or none at all. They system at the minute seems very unfair and confusing.
