WASHINGTON -- BadFruit Inc. has released software that turns iTunes, the online music store run by Apple Computer Corp., into a podcast downloading machine. It adds a directory of thousands of podcasts with a few mouse clicks. The person behind the so-called BadApple software -- released even as Apple is working on its podcasting features for iTunes -- is unknown.
A message on the BadFruit.com Web site explained the programmer's motive. "I'm worried that when and if Apple adds podcast support they will only list a few podcasts that they approve," he said. "Remember, this is a company that sues Web sites that say good things about their upcoming products -- bad Apple! BadApple gives you access to all podcasts -- even ones which Apple might disagree with and never list in iTunes software."
