Apple Rejects P2P App




By Sébastien ODDOS member of a.d.c.i. - Date : 2011-05-15 - Country : ETATS-UNIS - Subject : Litigations - IP Field : Intellectual Property


Citing copyright infringement concerns, Apple won’t include a BitTorrent client in the App Store.

Apple is a closed and tightly controlled environment. Wired sees some irony in Apple's decision:

1. Apple is wary of authorizing BitTorrent downloading apps because it could hinder its iTunes market for videos and music by turning the iPhone into a pocket-sized venue for ripping off pirated content.

2. Apple is also fighting to retain control of its App Store as the Copyright Office is considering authorizing iPhone users to jailbreak the device and run unauthorized apps.
