NIN Fan iPhone application goes live
9 to 5 Mac - Apple Intelligence —
For those of you who are big Nine Inch Nail fans, one of the most eagerly anticipated (by some) iPhone applications is now at the iTunes Store. While NIN fan doesn't apply to us, we've been hearing a lot of sentiment that all bands should have an application like this.
It wouldn't be too hard for a record label to either buy or replicate this app's functionality and distribute it with their bands' music and other paraphernalia. Yeah, we're sure the record labels will get right on that.
Free iTunes Download.

App Store rejections continue to defy logic with NIN app
Infinite Loop —
The inconsistent manner in which Apple's App Store reviewers apply a provision against "objectionable" content in iPhone apps continues to rear its ugly head. Case in point: this weekend, Nine Inch Nails frontman Trent Reznor found out that an update to his band's nin: access iPhone application had been rejected on the grounds that it contained a reference to "The Downward Spiral."
