It's incredible that this was rejected. I mean with a simple search in iTunes I find: The Downward Spiral (Deluxe Edition) [EXPLICIT]

Why can I buy this album of objectionable content, but I can't buy an app update that links to that album? ***? By Apple's own perverse logic, iTunes should be banned. If I can use iTunes to access tons of objectionable content, then reason stands that iTunes is bad and should be rejected.

Even the most pro-Apple fanboy cannot argue the fact that if the app was rejected because it accessed objectionable content... the very same damn content that is for sell in the music store of iTunes, then someone at Apple is completely f'n retarded!

Wow. That looks like a pretty polished app. To ban it on the content of one of the songs? That's pretty lame..

Also, lol @ djshelter
