iPhone app pirates now stealing from one another
Developers who work on rival iPhone App Store pirating apps -- Installous and Mega -- got into a dispute that resulted in Mega's app pirating system itself being pirated. It's not that Installous minded a little competition in the iPhone app piracy game, it's that Mega had the audacity to charge monthly subscription fees to access its library of unlocked app store software. Apparently, even pirates have their limits. The Installous developers attacked Mega by releasing Grabulous, an app that let users plunder Mega's servers and download apps without paying the subscriptions fees. After some back-and-forth with Mega blocking Grabulous and Installous releasing a new version, it appears that Mega is switching from the subscription model to an ad-and-donation supported system. Sounds smart to me. The attraction of pirating apps is that they're free. If you're going to charge, then even people who are ok with piracy are better off giving their money to the official app store, where some of it will reach the pockets of developers.
