I whole-heartedly agree. Everytime they come out with new firmware to fix a flaw, they take 1 step forward and 10 steps backwards.

Sarbanes Oxley doesn't allow for the updates to be free for the iPod or the revenue would have to be accounted for as deferred related to iPods. iPhones are an already deferred revenue item which is why updates can be given for free; at least that is my best guess.

This is insane. Look what Apple did with software 2.0 they are changing us 9.95 for the same Apps that were released in January.

The total comes out to be 29.97.

Ah, it’s the Law… Apple isn’t allowed to offer updated services to an existing product, Google: Sarbanes-Oxley Act

If you don’t believe me…

So go complain to your Senator, not Apple.

I agree that this is utter horse shit on Apple’s part.

I have been a long-time Macintosh user and a big Apple supporter, and I feel horribly insulted by them doing this. Despite there being so many cheaper alternatives and so many things wrong with the iPod Touch I bought the iPod Touch anyway because I assumed that Apple would keep working to make improvements and that those improvements would be FREE since system updates are always FREE for Apple’s computers and music players.

is not a lot of money, but it is insulting that Apple has decided that simply because I decided to support their new product I deserve to be charged more for basic features that should have been included from the start.

After being treated like this I will NEVER buy another first-generation Apple product again. Apple clearly does not care about their early adopters, and this simply shows how little they value their fans.

The 20 applications are a huge slap in the face to early adopters, I for one will never buy them. Besides you can get them free by jailbreaking your touch with ease now.

I purchased the iPod Touch last night from Best Buy because of it’s new features. After getting the 64-bit installer loaded it then found all my media and cataloged it. It then did a sync which took several hours. It then recommended the upgrade and as soon as that was done it wanted to sell me the features that I just purchased it for. Apple support was closed but I will call then today. If they think I’m buying the new software they are nuts. This is the first Apple product I have purchased in over 20 years and will blacklist them again now just like I did back then. When your one of the most expensive options out there you need to take care of your customers. Didn’t jobs just state a few months back how Apple, unlike Microsoft, give you the entire OS, not just part of it?
