Podcaster allows users to download podcasts directly to the iPhone, without connecting to a computer. iTunes doesn't have this feature. Currently the only way to get Podcaster for the iPhone is at NextDayOff.com, but your mileage may wary.
"We are giving [Podcaster] away when we receive a donation of $9.99 or more. The program should work for a minimum of one year but since Apple can turn it off remotely, the 1 year installation is not guaranteed. We will do everything in our power to keep the program working. All donations are final and cannot be refunded," says NextDayOff.com.
Developers are starting to question whether it is worthwhile for them to spend time creating apps that Apple may decide to reject from the Apple App Store, thus decreasing the app's profit potential.
"Very shortly Apple is going to experience a revolt of its top iPhone developers as they move away from writing applications that would be sold on the App Store. This is absolutely catastrophic for Apple because this policy won't effect the mediocre, knock off, derivative applications written by your average developers," said James R. Stoup of AppleMatters.com.
Apple also previously banned other apps from the App Store, including the now-infamous "I am Rich" app.
