Majority of iPhone rumors already mention a strong presence on video; Video calling, video recording, video editing, video recording, video upload, movie downloads etc. And here comes a revelation from an iPhone app developer who has several apps on the App Store already. According to the developers mail to us Apple has rejected their Video app iVidCam several times and at the same time allowed other apps using similar techniques on the App store.
While Apple has given developers a good platform to make money, they have at the same time been wall gardened about how developers publish their apps, what API’s they use and restrictions / no compete clauses in the TOS by Apple. Dear Apple, with great power comes great responsibility!
